About Lauren

I am an associate editor for several Patch sites in Northern Virginia, Washington and Montgomery County. When you see my face pop up on the top left-hand corner of your local Patch, that means your regular editor is probably taking a much-needed vacation!

Not to worry, though. I'm a well-qualified substitute. I have worked as a reporter since 2005 for daily newspapers in Georgia and New Hampshire, The Associated Press and MTV News. I also hold a masters degree in digital media journalism from Columbia University.

My work has been published by news outlets large and small, including the New Hampshire Union Leader, the Huffington Post and The New York Times.

When I'm not writing, I love to read and travel. I currently live in Washington with my husband, Brent, and our cat, Milly.

I can be reached at lauren.sausser@patch.com.

Hi Lauren, I was concerned that someone apparently wrote a comment on my 9/11 story that you thought was inappropriate... I never saw it but I am concerned that someone would do that about my story... what was the comment?
