Testimonials
"Laura, you are the coach I hope to be one day! You have a calm and thoughtful manner that makes everyone feel safe enough to be vulnerable, while you reassure us that we are capable of persevering through the challenging work to discover, learn, and grow as educators."
LAURA BRUDOS/Instructional Coach & Classroom Teacher
OREGON MIDDLE SCHOOL
"Laura is a gifted singer-songwriter and teaching artist. Whether leading adults or working with teens, she brings creative energy, a thoughtful calmness and joyful coaching approach that evolves into beautiful and original music. She has the ability to respectfully uplift important moments and memories of people’s lives into lasting lyrics and melodies that will be in your head for days. Her own music is just as emotive and powerful."

"I have known and worked with Laura for over 20 years; during this time, we have collaborated on teacher trainings, curriculum consulting and writing projects. Laura has a wealth of teaching and coaching experiences in diverse cross-cultural and international contexts; this, along with her intellectual curiosity and research training, allows her to bring a broader systems perspective and unique insights to all of her partnerships. But most importantly, she cultivates genuine relationships with her partners that last well beyond the conclusion of an individual project or contract. She remains a dear friend!"
