Lauren Bonanno

Career Showcase Host Committee

Lauren Bonanno is a new Career Showcase Host with Think Big for Kids.  She graduated from Villanova University in 2006 and kicked off her career in New York City, earning her stripes as a Recruiter with Raines International for nearly five years while sharpening her networking skills as Co-Social Chair for the Villanova University Alumni Association, Manhattan Chapter. Her passions eventually led her into the classroom where she taught for 11 years in a high-needs part of New York City; making it her mission to transform learning to read, write, & think into a meaningful & exciting process for her 6th grade students & their families. Everything came full-circle last year when Lauren left teaching and New York to be closer to her family – she lives in St. Pete and is thrilled to be back in the Recruiting seat as the newest member of the NextPath Career Partners team in Tampa. Lauren loves traveling, anything competitive & outdoors, & quality time spent with her dog, Maggie, her friends, and family. She is an aspiring Chess player, lover of kind, funny people,  and grateful for the opportunity to give back to kids again as a Think Big for Kids volunteer.
