Laura received her Bachelor’s degree in Art History from the University of Virginia and completed her Master’s in Italian Baroque Painting at the Courtauld Institute in London.
During her graduate studies she worked for Sotheby’s and after finishing her degree transferred to New York City where she became part of the Latin American Art Department. She spent much of her free time in Manhattan raising money for the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society and twice led a team in the annual Light the Night Walk. In 2006, she realized a goal to travel and teach internationally, and she spent a year teaching art and English to children and pre-teens in multiple countries, including Argentina and South Africa. Upon returning to the States, she came to Los Angeles where she joined the contemporary art world of Gagosian Gallery.
The desire to continue her work with mentoring children led her to Venice Arts, where she teaches Art Discovery and now to Project Libertad. She wishes she had the speed and wit of a heroine in a screwball comedy and does not enjoy writing personal bios of any kind.
