Exclusive Interview with Founder Lauren Anders Brown for Brainz Magazine
Our co-founder and CEO, Lauren Anders Brown, sat down with Brainz Magazine for a wide-ranging interview on her journey from award-winning documentary filmmaker to startup founder.
In the conversation, she shares:
Growing up around film — her father managed New York's Silvercup Studios — and building childhood forts out of c-stands and sandbags on set.
Joining the International Cinematographer's Guild and working on shows including Ugly Betty, House of Cards, and The Blacklist.
Becoming a humanitarian documentary filmmaker, with seven years of work for the UN's UNFPA across countries from Jordan to South Sudan, films screened at the Cannes Film Festival, and several awards (including two Telly Awards for FORGED).
How traveling to 87 countries — and a lifetime of globe-trotting with her own dog (9 countries and 75 flights together) — revealed how broken pet travel really is, and inspired her to build PadsPass.
Why the USA ↔ Bermuda route is PadsPass's first focus, and how filmmaking, humanitarian work, and entrepreneurship all connect.
