Lauren Hanson graduated with full time Web Development Cohort 60.

I’m an East Nashville native. I am a creative and love to explore and learn about new ideas. My past experience in photography, teaching and hospitality have given me some great problem-solving tools to move forward into web development. My goal is to connect with others who share in the same interests and contribute to the technology world. I look forward to constantly learning and the beginning of a new and exciting career.
