Laura’s family roots run deep in North Carolina, where her mother grew up in a textile mill town and her father played basketball for Davidson College. After growing up in Pensacola, Florida, she lived in Charlotte, NC with her husband E.J. for 10 years before they moved to Nashville, TN, to pursue music. With a marketing and client services background in fields such as healthcare consulting and financial services, Laura found a niche in helping small business owners with business development through digital marketing.
She began freelancing for clients as far back as 2009, helping with everything from brochure design to book editing. Eventually, her interest in technology led to the discovery of WordPress led to an affinity for web design. The field of web design brings together Laura’s skills in communications, editing, graphic arts, and marketing all in one package.
