Meet the Team
Wander On is owned by a married duo who turned their love for adventure into a thriving marketing collective. After spending two years exploring the U.S. in an RV, visiting wineries, breweries, and small businesses, they saw the need to help these unique places tell their stories. What started with a simple drone and a phone has grown into a full-service marketing agency, dedicated to supporting fellow wanderers in the hospitality and tourism industries.

Founder
Hey y’all! I’m Lauren – a mom, wife, and a passionate marketing professional with a deep-rooted love for the hospitality industry. The service industry grabbed me at an early age of 16 years old bussing tables in Fire Island, NY. With over 15 years of experience in marketing and events, I've had the pleasure of organizing everything from corporate conferences to intimate elopements and vibrant music festivals. A few names to mention: New Orleans Jazz Fest, this upcoming SuperBowl, BarStool Sports, Budweiser, and many weddings. My expertise lies in organization, social media strategy, influencer collaborations, and SEO. Last year, I took a leap of faith and turned my “passion project” into a full-time career.
Now, as a proud mom to our little adventurer Lincoln, I continue to explore the world, one photo, instagram post, or happy hour meeting at a time. Join me on this journey—we’re excited to help tell your story!Favorite Drink: French 75

Hello, I'm Jon, co-founder of “Wander On” and a lifelong enthusiast of the hospitality industry. My career started in the beverage space where I worked for large marketing agencies such as Legacy Marketing(Pernod-Ricard) & Momentum(William Grant & Sons). I was able to launch and grow some of the world's top liquor brands such as Reyka Vodka, Jameson, Tullamore Dew, and Montelobos Mezcal.
I bring expertise in beverage consulting, pricing, strategy creation, and capturing stunning aerial footage. I am proud to share that I am the official drone photographer for the WWII Museum in New Orleans. I am fully licensed with my FAA drone operator and was the only drone photographer to be approved to fly and capture Mardi Gras in 2024 by Homeland Security.
Now, as a dedicated father to our son Lincoln, growing our business has never been so important. Buckle up and let’s explore the limitless possibilities together… by air!Favorite Drink: Abita AndyGator
