About
Hi, my name is Laura. I am a Senior at Samford University with a passion for people and a love for marketing! My ability to keep deep, multi-generational relationships is what sets me apart from my peers. I have an eye for creative storytelling and a joy for learning, and I look for any and every opportunity to grow! Outside of marketing and work, this is who I am!
Samford University
After graduating high school, I packed my car and moved to Birmingham, AL. I pursued my love of Marketing and social media design. During my college career, I have had the opportunity to work with real clients in my classes, pursue internships and certifications, and strengthen my marketing knowledge. Later in college, I realized my love for learning and storytelling, but most importantly, getting to know people. Because of my passion for people, I added on a sales concentration and grew my skill sets, and I hope to be a lifelong learner.
Tampa, Fl
Growing up in Tampa, Florida sparked my fascination for art, culture, and all things creative. I remember being intrigued by the murals and new shops, and I was constantly seeking out new places to explore. Little did I know that the vibrant atmosphere and creative marketing strategies that surrounded me in Tampa would inspire me to pursue a career in advertising and marketing. Now, I’m thrilled to have the opportunity to take my experiences and bring them to life in my work.
People Matter
I have had the privilege of working with 80-year-olds, creating relationships with 92-year-olds, and being a camp counselor for 6-12-year-olds. Here is what I learned. Everyone has a voice and wants to be valued and heard. The most effective way to cultivate multi-generational relationships is first to listen. At the end of the day, people matter.
Adventure
Awaits
Whether it be a cross-country road trip, attempting indoor rock climbing, going on hikes, visiting a new state, or exploring a new area of town, I'm ready for an adventure. I believe life is full of stories. Taking time, unplugging, and being with nature is when my joy and creativity spark. When you get up and do, you make memories, experiences, and lifetime achievements.
Foodie
Growing up in Tampa, you are exposed to many things, such as alligators, water moccasins, and the occasional crazy Florida man. But most importantly, Food. On the weekends, you will catch me grabbing a friend, going to a coffee shop to get work done, meeting new people, and checking out all things local! You never know when you might discover something new and passion sparks... and it can be over a great meal!
