hi, I’m lauren

I'm passionate about social justice and promoting positive changes in the world. I’m currently based in Norwich and love nothing more than exploring the myriad of independent shops and cafes.

Following a career in design and marketing agencies, and in-house roles, I took the plunge to go freelance.

I’m a big fan of
dogs, podcasts, sweet treats, craft beer, non-fiction books, sunshine, and exploring new places!

fun fact:
I have a degree in global development, and never intended to go into the marketing industry!

The rest of the team?

Create Joy is mostly just me! But I do have a few lovely freelancers and agencies who I work with from time to time…
