Projects

In 2019, Lauren joined Tourism Vancouver Island, specializing in industry communications and providing crucial business development support. Finding her niche in the tourism industry, Lauren encountered an industry-wide pause a year later with the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic in Canada.

Following the success and intense industry uptake of the BC Tourism Resiliency Network, the BC Regional Tourism Secretariat (BCRTS) engaged Lauren’s expertise to launch a similar business support program focused on providing sustainability support and resources to BC tourism businesses. In January of 2023, the BC Tourism Sustainability Network was born.

Promoting inclusion in the tourism industry is essential to create safe and inclusive destinations and Lauren’s work with Tourism Nanaimo ensures that diversity isn't just celebrated - it's woven into the fabric of the tourism experience.
