On stage, Laura’s off-Broadway production of Time Biter, a new play by Caroline Dunaway, won the Audience Favorite Award at Soho Playhouse’s Lighthouse Series, and was awarded a self-produced residency at The Players Theatre. Most recently, she produced the world premiere of The One with Violets in Her Lap, a play by Patrice Danae Bell based on the poetry of Sappho, at The Flea. She enjoys collaborating with her friends at Blue Otter Theatre & with her partner, playwright Dante Flores.

Laura holds a Bachelor of the Arts in Theater Arts and Italian Studies from Dickinson College, and has completed additional training at Duke University, Yale University, the University of Bologna, and The Funny School of Good Acting. When she is not working, she enjoys wandering around the city, baking fussy desserts, attempting to teach her cat Parmesan to do cool tricks (no luck yet), watching horror movies, reading physical books because she still doesn’t have a Kindle, and fighting for the New York Health Act, which would guarantee free, comprehensive healthcare for all New Yorkers.

Based in New York City’s greatest borough (Queens), Laura is also able to work locally in Philadelphia and Boston. She is proficient in Premiere Pro, Photoshop, InDesign, and also the boring ones like Excel and Quickbooks. She was near-fluent in Italian when she graduated college, though it’s a little rusty now; she’s trying to learn French & Spanish but finds the Duolingo owl quite grating.
