Lauren Maureen

Owner & Tattoo Artist (She/Her)

Lauren is a tattoo artist (formerly a piercer) and the owner of Emerald Sun Studios.

She attended the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, and received a bachelor’s degree in Interior Architecture. Interior Architecture is fascinating, but she is much more fulfilled tattooing and running her business!

She started piercing at the end of 2019 and became a business owner during 2021. Now that she has Audrey and Dylan piercing full time, she can focus more of her creative energy on tattooing! While she is interested in trying her hand at all styles, eventually she’d like to focus on a neotraditional and art-nouveau style. She is very proud of her team and the high-quality services they provide. They hold themselves to a high standard by consistently continuing their education so that they can provide their clients with the safest experience.

Outside of work she loves trail running, camping, traveling, and spending time with her family and her partner. She’s also obsessed with her cat. Shout out to the Sunshine girl (^•ܫ•^).
