Laura never strays too far from the client work. Despite the daily demands of leading one of the PR industry’s most-admired firms, Laura’s true passion is solving client problems with insight-based strategies, inspiring her teams to create ideas that make a difference.

Maybe it’s Laura’s past experience as a client that keeps her close to the client teams and their work. Prior to founding 360, life was all fun and games for Laura as vice president of PR for a division of Hasbro, Inc., where she worked in lock-step with marketing and sales, as well as corporate communications. Laura started her agency career in Washington, DC, for Omnicom-owned agencies Ketchum and Porter/Novelli, where she focused on food and nutrition and environmental communications for consumer, corporate and trade association clients. She even had her own fire suit, working the press room and pit for Mobil 1 Racing.

Laura has been recognized as one of the PR industry’s leading innovators and top female executives. She has been named to the inaugural list of PRWeek Champions and PR News’ Top Women in PR list and is the recipient of a Stevie® award for Top PR Executive and the Crystal Bell Lifetime Achievement Award from the PR Club of New England. An active proponent of industry best practices, Laura has served on the board of directors for the PR Council and currently serves as a Vice-Chair for PROI Worldwide.

A compassionate advocate for those most in need, Laura is a member of the board of directors for the Animal Rescue League of Boston and is a longtime supporter of the Women’s Lunch Place, Boston’s only daytime shelter for women, and Room to Grow, providing support for moms and children 0-3.
