Lauren Nagel, Education Programs Assistant

Lauren has been biking ever since she could sit upright in a bike carrier! Having a dad who sold bicycles for a living, Lauren grew up as a bike-shop kid, graduated to becoming a community- bike shop adult and is now excited to be the Bike Easy Education Programs Assistant.

First working with Bike Easy as a League Certified Instructor, Lauren has been teaching students of all ages to learn how to safely ride a bike in New Orleans since 2016. She feels there is nothing better than watching someone learn to ride for the first time, knowing the myriad of benefits that cycling brings. 

Lauren envisions a world that is centered on caring for one another and the earth and believes bicycling and expanded transportation networks to be a part of that!
