“I have worked with Laura for the last 8 years at Duarte. During that time she and I have collaborated on many client-focused marketing programs to help boost brand awareness and increase top-line sales. As the VP of our academy, she brings a keen awareness of customer and industry trends to the forefront of our thinking to ensure that we are developing strategies and programs that target the right personas with the most applicable content and offerings to address their communication challenges. In addition to ensuring we are marketing to the right people, she also identifies the industry need and spearheads the development of training programs in online, instructor lead, and mixed media formats ensuring that we are on par with our competition. I don't know what I would do without her insight. Her team's efforts have resulted in year-over-year growth for the academy for 10 years. Laura is a focused leader with the wherewithal to lead a team to success or roll up her sleeves and get the job done herself. Lastly, I would say that Laura is a fantastic human! I trust her inexplicably and rely on her as a business partner and friend. Finding someone who is so HONEST, with no ego, and a focus on the greater good of the company and the people around her is rare. ”
