With a wide sport background (from hockey to kayaking to snowboarding) her greatest commitment stays with the sport of Ringette. Laura is a huge support of females athletes becoming coaches she has seen first hand the long term benefits of being involved in sport.

Laura's Motto :
l "Love (and live) your life or change it."
You have brains in your head. You have feet in your shoes.
You can steer yourself. Any direction you choose.
You're on your own. And you know what you know.
And YOU are the one who'll decide where to go....
-Dr. Seuss
