As a homeowner, buyer, seller, landlord, board member and renter, Laura knows the real estate business from virtually every angle.

For Laura, success is measured not just in closed deals, but in the lasting connections she creates along the way.

Laura grew up in the Yukon in Northern Canada. She is an accomplished glassblower and has sold and exhibited her work across North America for 30 years. When she is not in Brooklyn, she can be found renovating the 300-year-old converted dairy barn in Litchfield, CT, that she shares with her husband.
