This led her to study art, completing a BA in drawing at the University of Arts in London followed by an MA in Landscape Architecture at Writtle College UK. She then went on to work as a Landscape Architect on multidisciplinary projects at a leading international design firm in London.

Her specialties include community engagement, sustainability, playground design, parks, planting schemes, community gardens, project management and design of town centres and High Streets. Laura is a chartered member of the landscape Institute in the UK and has acted as a mentor for junior members, developing their skills and training them for the pathway to chartership examination.
