Lauren Cucinotta
I'm the Branding + Editorial Manager for TEDx, an initiative of TED, which lets individuals around the world host TED-like events to highlight the amazing voices from their community.
I manage the branding/positioning of TEDx events, and TEDx editorial. I work to provide internal resources to organizers and strategize on how to sustainably grow our global community.
I also share the amazing stories, talks and images from these events on the TEDx Tumblr
Before that, I ran Pie in the Park, a yearly event in Prospect Park, published a book through a Kickstarter campaign, hosted a pie event in collaboration with Kickstarter at Smorgasburg in Williamsburg. I directed the creation of the Doyle & Doyle e-commerce website and built a marketing + communications strategy to go with it.
I'm interested in the local on a global scale, community building, and how new technologies and new media can make that easier.
I love learning, yoga, reading and travel.
I'm American, je parle Francais et eu estou aprendando portugues.

Gareth’s 5 and a Yorkshire Terrier. His owner hadn’t been able to properly care for him and then passed away. She had been feeding him cornflakes and eggs and bacon and his fur was really matted when we got him. We had to shave him, but when his fur grows back it will be the most beautiful silvery blonde color.
An excerpt from a series of Richard Phibb’s portraits of animals up for adoption at the Humane Society of New York, in Paper magazine.
Gareth of course is my favorite because he is a Yorkshire Terrier.
