The Co-Co Uncovered, spread 01
Lauren Decker, Director, Mentora Foundation
Co-Founder, the Co-Co
In 2018, Lauren was one of a group of three female founders who began to build the Co-Co. 8 years later she continues to call the Co-Co home as a coworker, and I love seeing her when our paths cross at the Summit location. During our photoshoot, I learned about the crazy first years of the Co-Co—so interesting!—and her work now to prepare young scholars for impact as future leaders.
When I photograph clients, I spend the first minutes studying their expressions, learning their movement, and finding the natural details that make them who they are. Lauren’s style and grace always stand out, whether her smile is big or subtle. Thank you, Lauren for your role at the Co-Co and in this first edition of Uncovered.
