Meet Lauren Nortier: Digital Designer at FoodMix
Lauren Nortier: Digital Designer at FoodMix Marketing Communications

If there’s one thing Lauren Nortier, our new Digital Designer, knows, it’s how to blend creativity with heart—and creamy peanut butter, of course! As a fresh face to food marketing, Lauren’s journey into design has been anything but ordinary.

Lauren grew up in Westchester, Illinois, but now calls the city of Chicago home. Her story began at the University of Illinois, where she studied industrial design. But her passion for storytelling led her down a different path. She dived into freelance work, collaborating with a nonprofit focused on social impact. From there, an internship turned into a full-time gig, and her love for meaningful, impactful design took off.

Now, Lauren brings her talents to FoodMix Marketing Communications, where she’s already making a splash. Inspired by vibrant, playful brands like Poppy and Olipop, Lauren thrives on bold colors and fresh ideas. She finds her best inspiration walking through Chicago neighborhoods, soaking up the street-level energy and creativity of the city.

When it comes to food, Lauren’s heart is in her Nanna’s kitchen, where homemade pasta with slow-cooked meats has become a family treasure. For drinks, she keeps it classic and fun with kiddie cocktails like Shirley Temples. And when dining out, you’ll find her at Farm Bar in Lakeview, savoring cheese curds, short ribs, and other local delights.

As for 2025, Lauren is thrilled about the adventures ahead. With a brand-new passport in hand, she’s excited to explore new destinations, dive into museums, soak up the sights, and embrace the thrill of travel.

We’re thrilled to have Lauren’s creativity, passion, and unique perspective on our team. Here’s to many more inspiring designs—and perhaps a few extra cherries in her Shirley Temple!
