Lauren went to school at the University of Wisconsin – Eau Claire, where she graduated with a Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Liberal Arts. After living aboard for a year she arrived back in the states and discovered that TreHus was in need of some help in Marketing (where her sister Jenna Befus was currently working). She started here at TreHus as a temporary Marketing Assistant, over time her responsibilities grew and she was hired on full time as the Office Manager and later became Operations Manager. She has learned so much about the business of TreHus by working in multiple roles.

Outside of work her favorite activities are traveling, cooking, and playing volleyball. If the weather is warm she can be found enjoying the sun with her friends and family while camping, attending concerts, grilling, or gardening.
