Laurel is a Silicon Valley based Creative Director and changemaker who lives at the intersection of storytelling and social impact. From TikTok and Google’s Brand Studio to the 3% Movement and Intel’s Agency Inside, she helps brave brands and passionate partners create the change they want to see in their business—and the world. She’s the co-founder of the One Club for Creativity’s gender-equality boosting Next Creative Leaders initiative, and the co-founder of Our Silent Partner, a creative reflection on mental health named one of the 10 Projects that made our industry better in 2020 by Adweek. Her Google Pride work was named a World Changing Idea by Fast Company, and her tireless DEI advocacy earned her a spot on the Pitch 100 Super Women list. When she’s not trying to save the work or humanity, she’s busy being Ayla Rose’s mama.
