Biography (2019)
Laura is thrilled to be joining the 1st National Tour of CATS. She grew up in Kansas City and received a BFA in Dance from the University of Arizona. She recently returned to the city after a year on the road with the 1st National Tour of An American in Paris.

Prior to her time on tour, Laura danced with City Ballet of San Diego followed by Odyssey Dance Theatre in SLC where she performed many principal roles and did two international tours. She has danced works by Christopher Wheeldon, George Balanchine, Martha Graham, Bonnie Story, Derryl Yeager, Betsey Wistrich, Michael Tevlin, Gary Christ, Ann Reinking, and many others. While in Salt Lake City, Laura taught for the Ballet West Academy as well as company class for Odyssey and has recently been teaching at BDC.

She is excited for this new journey and wants to thank Andy, Lindsay Levine and the CATS team, her teachers at Miller Marley and U of A, Lisa Harvie for the endless inspiration, Lakey Wolff & Co., and mostly her incredible parents who have supported her every step of the way. This is for you!
