Lauren Hogan-Keogh
Solicitor
WorkCover
I graduated in November 2006 with Bachelor of Laws degree at Monash University, having previously graduated from a Bachelor of Arts degree at Monash University in 2003 with a major in Behavioural Studies and minor in Sociology. The friendly, social environment of Wisewoulds is what not only attracted me to the firm, but what made me realise 10 minutes into my first interview that I could not possibly work anywhere else (the billiard table didn't hurt either).
I commenced my Articles with Wisewoulds in 2007. In 2008, I was admitted to practice and commenced employment in the Workcover Department, specialising in Statutory Benefits Litigation.
At the age of three, after watching an "inspiring" episode of Sesame Street, I declared to my mother that I was going to become a brain surgeon when I grew up (pretty ambitious I know). It was not until my later years after realising that I could not stand the sight of blood that I had no option but to seek an alternate career path. Psychology, journalism and marketing were fleeting options considered but inevitably a career in law won hands down.

My major passion is sport, especially snowboarding. The best time of my life was the summer of 2004-2005 where I spent three months in Lake Tahoe, California snowboarding and working as a "coffee barista" under the CCUSA work program. From the bright lights of Vegas to the beautiful soft Californian snow - I definitely made the most of every moment. I also love basketball, having played for over 10 years and coached for 6 years during my University days. If I am not playing or watching sport you will find me at the local pub enjoying a drink with my girlfriends.
