My name is Lauren Neefe.

I produce, curate, and art-direct content across platforms for the global architecture and design firm Perkins&Will. My superpower is getting you to think a little harder about the world around you.

I am the co-creator and producer of the Perkins&Will podcast, Inhabit.

I am an artist and poet, award-winning educator, longtime editor for prestige publications, and activist in the ATL’s racial justice community. I hold a Ph.D. in English from SUNY Stony Brook and an M.A. in Poetry from the Writing Seminars at Johns Hopkins.

I am an NYTLien.

My first true love is NYC. It is where I learned to navigate the chaos. Now Atlanta makes me whole: yogi, cyclist, art lover, pitty whisperer, OK cook, helpless gardener, neighbor, fighter, sister, friend.

the sound is the story.
