Lauren Volentir

My background is deeply rooted in the motorsports industry. I grew up racing dirt bikes and have been riding and racing for 26 years. I competed in the AMA WMX professional circuit from 2008 to 2012; and even did a couple of rounds in 2026 with my fellow vet WMX friends after the recent revival of the series. While I may not be winning any titles these days, I am relentlessly passionate about motorcycles and love to see the continued growth of the sport.

I started my graphic design career with a local print shop fresh out of high school while also attending college. I learned all about the production business from start to finish and what it takes to balance creativity with tight deadlines. In 2013, I graduated with my BFA in Digital Design and began doing creative and marketing work for motorcycle dealerships and action sports-centered clientele throughout my home-state of Colorado.

In 2022, my career path led me to Southern California to an opportunity with KTM (formerly KISKA Inc.) that I just couldn’t pass up. Here, the two worlds of motorcycling and design merged together for me like no other place in the world. I am now in a Senior Designer position with Troy Lee Designs, who has been an iconic influence on the creative side within the moto industry since the 80’s. I grew up aspiring to work for a badass artist-centric brand and I am grateful to have found that with a group of people who share the same passions.

My career journey has been an insane grind filled with lots of ups and downs and late nights; but overall a dream come true. Outside of professional work, I continue to build my repertoire by learning new skills in various applications as well as continuing the practice of good ol’ traditional painting and drawing.
When I’m not creating, I am out riding with my Moto Fit Club teammates, being a Pokemon/video game nerd, building bikes, hiking, snowboarding, and going tide-pooling at the beach.
