Laura attended The Theatre Conservatory at the Chicago College of Performing Arts in Chicago where she earned a B.F.A. with honors in Theatre Performance in 2001 and then set off for the West Coast.

 

After a brief stint in San Francisco, she headed south to Los Angeles where she began performing in local bars and concert venues.

 

But Paris was calling…she moved to the City of Light in 2005 and attended L'École internationale de théâtre Jacques Lecoq (2006/2007) and after years of nannying, waitressing, secretary-ing, translating and playing “on the side” she finally decided to make her side hustle a full-time job.

 

Between making music with her band, The Barettes (Bad Stone/Gum Tapes), improvising with The Improfessionals and “New”, the Improvised Musical and doing theatre with the Big Funk Company the net appeared and she is currently appearing as Isadora Duncan in “l’Insolent Roland Garros” (m.e.s. Eric Bouvron) in addition to work in film, radio and tv.
