In Laurie's words...
Once upon a time, I graduated from Vassar College with a degree in BioPsychology and a passion to understand people. As things happen, I moved to Washington, DC, was lured into the exciting world of real estate development and never looked back. Until I did...
About 5 years ago, I began to focus on what drives people to excel. What motivates hard work, dedication and loyalty? My passion for helping people learn to flourish in their lives and maximize their potential became a true calling. While continuing my full-time career as an executive at Vornado, I completed a year-long program in Positive Psychology as well as a rigorous program to become certified as a professsional executive coach. I am dedicated to using my experience and education to help existing leaders continue to grow and emerging leaders to come into their own in a powerful way.
I am thrilled and honored to share my many years of experience and knowledge with inspiring and eager leaders - and we are all capable of being leaders - who want to bring their "A" game to life...whether in the board room, the lunch room, or at home.
