Lauren Cole serves as Chimes head copy editor, which makes sense given her plans to go into publishing as an editor and her love for reading, writing, grammar and the Oxford comma. She is a senior majoring in writing and French and minoring in psychology. Lauren is also a student fellow for the Calvin Center for Faith & Writing. During her free time she can be found walking in the woods, staring off into space, or getting sushi with friends. She is currently studying abroad in Grenoble, France.
