"Not only has Laura nurtured me professionally, she has been a great resource personally as well. My kids can’t WAIT to dive into her new programs at The Handwork Studio this summer!" ~Sarah Bond
We can count on this trailblazing powerhouse of a business woman-on-the-move for encouragement and even hugs when we need it. She gave us traction and and understanding of the importance of “the right people, in the right seats.” Thanks, Laura!
