I have always loved to read and draw, and from a very young age I enjoyed scribbling my own stories and drawings to go with them. In high school, I read a book series that I really liked, but when I got to the end it stopped on a cliff hanger! I decided to write my own ending. A few years ago I discovered online freelancing, and I have been doing it ever since. I am also working on my own novels and stories which will soon be published. 

I am also an aspiring graphic designer. I am learning to use Adobe programs to create these designs, and I am thoroughly enjoying it. I am learning something new with every project I complete. 

I am also a singer and musician. I have been singing as long as I can remember, and I got my first violin at age 7. I now perform for weddings and other events as a small side business (www.lauraseventmusic.com).
