I’m a product, design, and data person.
I started my career in SEO and along the way picked up skills in analytics, user experience design, and product management.
14 years ago, this website was my gateway into learning about website development. It eventually morphed into a blog about the intersection of design and technology, and had a third metamorphosis into my general “internet presence.”
Welcome, and thanks for popping in.
“One of Laurel’s talents is her ability to break big goals and ideas into bite size chunks. This skill made her an incredible manager: expectations and goals were clear and she created a rapport of constant feedback, allowing us to iterate quickly. I knew that whatever challenges the day presented, I had a teammate rooting for me, challenging me, and looking out for me.”

You are so, so good at follow-through and doing what you say you want to get done. It’s very impressive; I don’t think you quite realize how rare that is.

“Laurel manages to both impress you with her smarts but also speak to you with empathy so
you walk away from a conversation with her feeling smarter – like you just learned something new.”

“It has taken so much off my plate to trust you with logistics. I am so grateful for your attention to detail, proactivity, and follow through. Thank you for your endless conviction about what we are building; it is more than I could have ever hoped for. We are SO lucky to have you.”
