In this episode of How I Get It Done, Lauren walks the Cut through her typical day from rehearsals to performances and everything in between.

"It's not easy telling your peers what to do". Such honest words. She seems so down to earth and real.

Omg she seems like such a sweet gal. Like she's very successful in her career, yet she doesn't carry a sort of "snobbiness" despite being in a very competitive type of entertainment business.

She's disarmingly endearing. It's almost too much, lol. I like her.

Lauren is so incredibly talented yet modest and kind. Meeting her in New Haven Ballet’s production of The Nutcracker was one of the best experiences. Some dancers will walk around in the wings as if they are royalty but Lauren took her time to speak with and get to know each dancer backstage which is so rare. She is such an incredible dancer and person.

The way she was dancing with her cat was so sweet. Loved this little glimpse into her world.

I can’t comprehend the brilliance of choreographers. And these young NYC Ballet choreographer-dancers are just astounding in their ability to juggle the two roles.

My favorite dancer and up and coming choreographer at NYCB, 💓 you Lauren.

[weizhou]

She’s just amazing, my hands down favorite dancer, I watched her over the years, from she first started with nycb to principal and now. Just amazing how she grew.

[karend]

You are a very beautiful dancer. I love the grace of your hands.

I love how the cat is like her bff and her boyfriend is sitting on a desk in the background like a cat.

[JoyfulMD]

She has Adriene Mishler energy and I'm here for it

[holdensupreme]

It is great seeing NYCB ballerinas "breathe".

[jwhite]

Congrats on becoming a choreographer! That's so cool! I admire all you put into a day.

[Danibeans]

I wonder who she’s worked with who hasn’t had great energy and wasn’t willing to collaborate.

[jupitired]

I have so much respect for ballerinas, that pointe!

[flua]

Beautiful, soft-spoken person. Enjoyed watching this!
