Spurred by the voting irregularities in Georgia and across the country, Lauren is now the CEO of Fair Fight Action, which focuses on electoral integrity and reform.

Throughout her career, Lauren has raised money door-to-door and advised high net worth donors, recognizing the importance of grassroots investment and growing the infrastructure of funding for progressive values. In her work, she helped pass ballot initiatives to raise the minimum wage, and she supported emerging political leaders across the South and around the country build their organizations and their leadership. In 2010, she built an unprecedented $15 million Ohio campaign effort. She launched the New Georgia Project in 2014 and served as its first executive director.
