TESTIMONIALS
​
"After her first day in the office I knew I’d be able to trust her. She is an incredibly organized person with a passion for the work she does, and professionalism beyond her years. In the live music marketing world our jobs are different every day, and Laura adapted surprisingly quickly for only being in the office twice a week; she tackled everything I threw at her. But the thing I loved most was her effective management of our social media accounts. Because summertime is so chaotic and Laura is so trustworthy, I handed all Live Nation Detroit social accounts over to her and pretty much said, “go for it!” And it was the right move. My social media skills are no match for hers! She was surprisingly creative with post copy (including Snapchat graphics) and her iPhone camera skills are amazing." View More

"Laura is probably one of the most dedicated and hard working students I have ever had the pleasure of teaching. She's smart, quick, supportive, and passionate about her career opportunities... She sets the bar quite high wherever she works. She also has a calm, mature demeanor, which is quite refreshing when working in the highly stressful environment of live events. Having spent 25 years working professionally in the event industry, I know the type of personality one wishes for in their team, Laura more than fits the bill." View More

"Laura's interest in marketing has proven to be a great asset when evaluating the risks and benefits of potential grant projects. Laura is conscientious and hard working. Her leadership quality shines through when discussing the hard issues of what kind of projects the Youth Advisory Committee should support that will improve the lives of children in our community. I am proud to have had the opportunity to witness Laura's growth into a responsible, mature young woman. She has impressed me with her involvement in all areas of her life, and is an excellent choice for employment positions."
