Client Testimonials

I had the pleasure of serving on many task forces with Laura and it was always a pleasure. I felt like I had ownership in the success of the entire organization. And of course, it was always fun too, because Laura is a dynamic person and always a joy to be around. I strongly recommend Laura as a business partner!
5/5


Although I work with MANY organizations doing similar projects, I have yet to ever run across a more thorough and talented organizer and Do-er! Laura's strengths are that she sees the big picture, prioritizes all the steps in front of the project, and ATTACKS the project with creativity and commitment through to the very end. I was so impressed with her that she immediately went into my "recruiting basket" as a potential hire for my organization. I highly recommend Laura for any organization that is looking to engage an independent thinker that is willing to do what it takes to see every project through to it's successful completion with creativity & focus.
