A quick hello from Laura

I have decades of experience in the field of elementary education, working as a teacher, school librarian, school counselor and school social worker. I started my career at a residential treatment facility and have experience working with adults who have intellectual and developmental disabilities and with children who have various disabilities. Outside of work, I love to hike, swim, read, cross stitch and spend time with my family and my dog.
