Nice to meet you
I'm Geis, or Geisler, or we can go more formal, and you can call me Lauren. I’m a Brooklyn-based CD Art Director who enjoys thinking of the impossible ideas and working with the people who make them come to life. To quote the great John C. Reilly in his iconic role as Dale Doback, "here to fuck shit up."
Besides that, I'm a comedy enthusiast, a dog mother of one (his name is Charlie, and he is my ball-obsessed son from Texas), a wannabe ceramist (the ghost of Patrick Swayze and I make beautiful misshapen pots together), and a Brooklyn farmer (sounds like an oxymoron, I know). Originally I'm from South Florida, but I have called Boulder, Richmond, and Bah-ston home.
