Laura has presented at state and national conferences, written blog articles, and produced live streaming videos on topics related to college counseling and admissions.

Laura resides in Central Ohio with her husband and three kids. She savors every precious moment with her children whose favorite pastimes include exploring nature and building pillow forts. On special nights out, Laura and her husband can typically be found eating at locally-owned restaurants or belting out their favorite ballads at karaoke. When she’s not spending time with her family, Laura serves at her church and participates in the work of area non-profits. In her free time, Laura enjoys watching her favorite sitcoms or relaxing on her front porch swing.
