“Poems say out loud what we all feel down low.”

From my unwritten memoir

Poetry Was the Affordable Therapist We Needed All Along

Hi,

I’m a French-American poet, author, speaker, AI designer, mindfulness facilitator and string cheese enthusiast.

When I’m not busy designing more emotionally supportive AI, I’m on a mission to break poetry out of its ivory tower as an accessible tool to support our wellbeing.

Poetry

Research shows poetry is like music to your brain: everyone can feel it. My writing, workshops, and performances reclaim poetry as an accessible tool for you to experience playfulness, introspection and community.

Artificial Intelligence

With 6+ years working on AI like Bard and the Google Assistant, I’m committed to designing inclusive tech that helps us become more emotionally intelligent.

Corporate

Whether you’re looking to foster team-building that lasts or to boost your creative skills as a content/marketing/product team, I lead workshops and talks that leverage the power of poetry to inspire both your work and workplace.

poetry is your bFF, trust me

Poems say out loud what we all feel down low. I’ve felt understood by poems in ways that even my inner emo teenager couldn’t deny. Science suggests reading and writing poetry reduces stress, anxiety and loneliness. Learn more about how you can benefit from poetry.

let's ignite corporate creativity

 

During my 6+ years at Google, I’ve seen firsthand how increasingly demanding deadlines, remote work, and the stress of economic uncertainty weaken the sense of creativity, community, and safety that employees need to thrive - and stay - in any company.

That's why my workshops and talks are a unique blend of poetry, psychology, mindfulness and AI that help teams connect meaningfully, acquire tools to support their wellbeing, or boost their skills as content creators, marketers and salespeople.

“Lauren is brilliant at bridging the worlds of tech and poetry; her talks are truly original and inspiring.”

AI can support humans

As a Senior UX Content Strategist with 6+ years developping cutting edge AI like Bard/Gemini and the Google Assistant, I believe in principled approaches to designing products that promote human flourishing. Let’s make sure the AI-pocalypse stays in Hollywood.
