Lauren Schneider

Lauren Schneider is a go-getter. Originally from Portland, she graduated from the University of Oregon before moving to San Francisco to pursue a career in sales. Lauren started in healthcare but pivoted to advertising after finding a passion in digital marketing. After a few years working in the adtech space, this self-starter returned to Oregon to create her own business.

Lauren shamelessly admits that she moved back into her childhood home at the age of 28 (and didn't leave until she was 30) to build the business she'd always dreamed of—TrovaTrip. With the drive to make travel safer and more accessible to all, Lauren is proud to bring to life a platform that lets others host unforgettable trips with their communities. She is forever grateful to her co-founders, Nick Poggi and Brandon Denham, for being courageous (or nutty) enough to go all-in on this journey together.
