Student portfolio: School of Education & Social Policy and Weinberg College of Arts & Sciences
Laura earned her Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, with a concentration in Marketing, and minor in Public Relations, from Marquette University and her Master of Education in Counseling, with a concentration in College Student Development, from DePaul University.

In another life, Laura might have been a designer - either in interiors or fashion. Laura also likes spending her time going on walks with some combination of family/friends/dog/coworkers, practicing Pilates, and being a tourist in her own city.
Laura’s favorite advice for students: “You do you! Listen to your inner voice when making career choices and trust that you will discover the best career path for you. As a career changer, many people in my life shared their opinions on where I should take my career and what I should do. Staying true to myself ultimately led me to a fulfilling career path. Remember that you are the expert on yourself.”
