Lauren Gundrum: Writer, Theater Maker, Product Leader

Lauren Gundrum is a product leader, musical theater writer/producer and small business founder. She loves creating, storytelling, problem-solving, and making big things happen - whether that's through technology or the arts.

Lauren has spent most of her tech career at startups. From driving funding to women-owned companies, to increasing learning outcomes in K-12 classrooms, her passion is creating products that bring joy and truly make a difference to end users.

Lauren has written and produced in cabarets, festivals, independent theaters and off-Broadway. She firmly believes in the power of art to help us grow, connect, and feel. Unfortunately, it’s very hard to be an artist in today’s economy. There’s a mismatch between how impactful art is, and how artists are compensated. Lauren’s mission is to support artists in getting their work seen so they can keep doing what they want to do: creating.
