Laura's journey is marked by a deep-seated passion for languages, logic, and the art of using words to express our deepest values and thoughts. Her academic path began at Baylor University, where she immersed herself in classical languages and literature. Her curiosity didn't stop there; she delved into political theory, linguistics, and modern languages, showcasing her broad intellectual interests. Laura's pursuit of knowledge led her to the University of Notre Dame, where she obtained a Masters of Theological Studies, further expanding her academic repertoire.

With six years of teaching experience under her belt, Laura's move to Jackson was driven by an opportunity to teach humanities and foreign languages at a local private school. She thrives on demystifying the complexities of grammar, making languages like Spanish, and even subjects outside her primary interest like math, more approachable for her students. Laura's enthusiasm for teaching is matched by her love for the great outdoors. In her free time, she is often found exploring the local trails, whether it's mountain biking in the summer or backcountry skiing when the snow falls.
