Lauren was raised in Fort Collins, CO where her passion for animals grew through 4-H and by growing up on a ranch. She has been a Durango resident for a decade and a half. Durango has reignited her passion for small animal care and healing. She continues to expand her knowledge through Riverview and greatly enjoys all of the possibilities that Riverview offers to learn and grow. She enjoys her time with her two wild boys camping and four-wheeling the San Juans. She also practices healing touch and more for two-legged and four-legged creatures alike!
