Lauren Puglia
LAUREN PUGLIA
global creative director, Hyper Island, New York

Lauren is a shaker and a stirrer, born and raised in New Orleans; so blame or credit her eccentricities on that. She loves ideas, art, people and systems and her obsession with audiences began working on Broadway. She asks lots of questions and is obsessed with finding out why people like (or dislike) things. Lauren has worked in strategy and innovation for giant global companies from the brand side, agency side, and consultancy side. She recently left her strategy outpost at Undercurrent to join the crew at Hyper Island, teaching people and organizations to be become life-learners.
