Hello there! I’m Laura, a passionate dog lover and creative soul living in the Pacific Northwest.

My career evolution has been as diverse as the landscapes that surround me, spanning from dog-wrangler to designer to creative manager and soon-to-be art therapy advocate / art facilitator / creativity coach / dog-art hybrid something.

My love for dogs is rivaled only by my passion for fostering creativity and community. As I expand my skill set and career horizons, I’m excited to delve into the realm of art as therapy-based community classes. These dog-friendly classes are not just about painting or crafting; they’re about building connections, promoting joy and expression, and nurturing the creative spirit within each of us.

In my vision, these classes become more than just workshops; they become hubs of inspiration, where people come together to explore their creativity, share stories, and support one another. It’s about fostering a sense of belonging and empowerment through art.

Through this journey, I aim to maintain a sense of creative freedom in both my professional and personal life. Whether I’m painting a canvas, designing a workshop, or taking my beloved furry friends for a walk in the woods, creativity is my guiding light.
