Lauren Fries is in charge of Bearded Studio’s project management and client relations. Lauren’s top priorities are to ensure that all projects go smoothly, finish on time, and that nothing ever falls through the cracks.

Before working in the "start-up" environment of Bearded, Lauren was an account manager in the world of advertising. Her background lends a unique and useful perspective, as she makes sure projects are trafficked correctly and the rest of the Beardeds are working on the right projects at the right time to meet their deadlines.

Outside of Bearded, Lauren can be found competing as an equestrian, traveling and buying more shoes.
