I’m Laura, I’m a thinker, culture surfer, insight hunter, and vision creator.
I thrive when I am immersed in different cultures. I love travelling as often as I can, and often more. My Ideal future is where I can be anywhere in the world, and still work to add value to people, brands and organisations.
My area of focus is within the exciting world of brand and experience design. I’ve been described as 'passionate strategist’ when I have an insight, I like to make sure it’s honoured. And a ‘workshop provocateur’ with the most affection, my team know that I like to challenge traditional assumptions. For me a truly insightful and creative response to my client's challenges can differentiate them with the power to change perception, motivate sales and build loyalty.

I hold a Master Degree in Innovation Management from Central Saint Martins, London. It helped polish my skills to be comfortably working in multi-disciplinary, global and multi-cultural teams.
