About Me
Profile Type: Individual
Number of Employees: 1
I'm Laura, an Aquarius to the T. My husband and I collect vinyls. I love surprises and thunderstorms (and surprise thunderstorms!). I lived in Austin on and off for almost five years and in Las Vegas for a little over two years. I get excited when my Real Simple magazine comes in the mail. I can't speak Spanish to save my life. I am extremely competitive. I never had to try in school. I love to sing. I can't stand plain white walls.
Interests: graphic design, music, writing/editing/correcting grammar, theater, magazines, jeans, tulips, movies, newspapers, indie art galleries, clipping coupons & flip flops.
