As a Product Designer...

About me

Color

I am a person of color.
Color is what I use to define me.
I am the result of the reflection of light.
I am green, like the grass you see in the valleys, growing and exploring all that I am.
I am yellow, like the lilies of the fields, stretching my face to the sun. I take in all that life has to offer.
I am red, like the setting sun on a summer day. But I wake up with fire, ready to take on the world.
I am blue, like the stillness of the water.
I live to create ripples of change.
I am a person of color.

– Lauren Richard

I walked through a cave to get to this amazing waterfall in Iceland.

Hot air balloon festival in Sonoma, California. Riding in a hot air balloon is on my bucket list!

I went snorkeling in Iceland between two tectonic plates. The water is a constant 36 degrees Fahrenheit. I was wearing a dry suit!

Kayaking in Lake Tahoe! I love the water!

I’m from Cleveland and a dedicated Browns Fan. This is at a bar in Denver that recently became an official Browns Backers bar!

I love skiing! This was my first time skiing on a Colorado mountain!

One of my favorite things to do is go on hikes. This was at Lake Tahoe, California.

This was an artificial ice cave in Iceland. We were unable to walk through a real one because it was too warm at the time.
