Our Staff

Lauren LaBorde comes to Jobs to Move America with over 10 years of experience in various communications roles—from a journalist at an alternative newsweekly in New Orleans to an editorial manager at a tech start-up in Chicago. At the beginning of 2020, Lauren got involved in the Democratize ComEd coalition in Chicago after learning about public power’s potential to fight the climate crisis and capitalism’s commodification of survival. She is excited to start as a Communications Specialist at JMA and do work that contributes to creating a just and equitable economy that centers workers.
