Born a mountain girl in the hills of western Pennsylvania, Laura left the comfort of home and support of family to follow a fantastic career opportunity in North Carolina. Having retired twice, once from the federal government and a second time from the practice of real estate, Laura now lives at the Crystal Coast of beautiful North Carolina, enjoying life as Wife, Mom of three adult children, Grammy to two perfect grandchildren, Prayer Warrior, Princess of A Lot, and Plant Mom.

Expanding her faith journey, Laura has embraced a third career as a creative, writing blog posts, a little fiction, devotionals, and all things based on prayer, praise, and the Word.

When she is not writing, Laura can be found cultivating her bevvy of house plants….and planning for her next mission trip to Zambia or wherever Abba Father leads.
