I loved understanding how things worked and had plenty of sprained ankles, blisters and joint injuries from gymnastics, dance, tennis and volleyball as a kid,” she says. Laura earned her Bachelor of Science in Nursing at IUPUI – Indiana University School of Nursing (Indianapolis, IN). She then returned to school after gaining real-life experience in cardiac care units and earned her Master of Science in Nursing, Nurse Practitioner Adult Gerontology Acute Care at University of Texas at Arlington (Arlington, Texas). In working with cardiac patients, Laura assists physicians in coordinating patient care, procedures, and also supports with meeting patients’ needs. “I have always enjoyed educating patients on how they can manage their cardiac conditions, and in many cases prevent or at least slow the progression of their disease,” Laura says. “Everyone has a choice in what they want to do, or how they want to manage their health and health issues can be scary at times. I’m here to help facilitate making that choice.” In her own words… Who is or was the most influential people/role models in your life? My dad was the first in his family to attend college. He taught me to work hard to keep a positive outlook, and to appreciate the moments that you have with the people you love. My mom taught me to “grow where you’re planted” and how to think in an organized, mathematical way. What was your first job growing up? What do you remember about it? I sold women’s clothing at a retail store in the mall. I enjoyed helping people find what they were looking for. What is your favorite food? Movie?

Best: math and chemistry; Worst: physics If you could sit down to dinner with anyone (alive or deceased) who would it be and why? Army Col.
