Miranda Lapour

Statement

Hi there! I’m Miranda Lapour. I grew up from humble roots in the Midwest, where I never stopped talking, dreaming and pushing the limits. I started working at 14 and learned the values that live in me still, care for my community, respect to larger natural systems and working with purpose and grit. I’m a big picture thinker hooked on forging a sustainable path for the future. Analyzing systems from the macro to the micro and deeply understanding human behavior allows me to synthesize insights and identify opportunities. As a designer, working collaboratively across disciplines allows for a kind of disruption that leads to shifting paradigms. I want a seat at that table.
