Throughout her entire life, Laurie has assumed the role of caregiver, but it was through her 21 years (and counting) of experience parenting a child with profound needs that she discovered the true purpose for her life – to serve as an advocate and beacon of hope for those who feel lost or broken.
Laurie is a self-professed “warrior mom” whose honesty, humor and authenticity have connected her to families, medical professionals, therapists and, frankly, everyone she meets. Through her podcast, “Living the Sky Life — Our Autism Journey,” her books, Welcome to My Life: A Personal Parenting Journey Through Autism, and Selling Vegetables to Drunks: Lessons I Learned as an Alcoholic’s Daughter, her advocacy work and her speaking events – all centered around resiliency, perspective and belief in a higher purpose – Laurie is continually striving to make a lasting impact in the autism community and beyond.”
In addition to being an acclaimed author, audiobook narrator, podcaster, speaker and respected leader in the pharmaceutical industry, Laurie is a wife, sister, mother, community volunteer and holds a strong passion for all types of fitness -- marathon running, CrossFit, cycling, Yoga and bodybuilding. Laurie was born and raised a Michigander, lived in Southern Indiana for 20 years post college and will soon call Colorado her new home.
