Lindsay Lauria is from Grand Rapids, Michigan, where she’s lived her whole life. Family is the most important thing to Lindsay, and she lives just five minutes from her grandma’s house. Her grandma's house is the home of all of her favorite foods and childhood memories, and most importantly, home to the best chocolate chip cookies she’s ever had.
She attends the University of Michigan and chose it not just for its strong academics, but because it already felt like home. Both of her older sisters graduated from U of M, and her family is huge fans of the University. Lindsay plays soccer and loves traveling, especially to Italy, Hawaii, and Mexico, and always makes time for friends.
Though her major is currently undecided, she’s excited to explore new paths while staying grounded in the things that matter most to her: good people, good experiences, and of course, good food.
