Getting her start in theatre, Laurie eventually turned her sights on the movies.  A chance background casting as a hairdresser in a Charlie’s Angels - Behind the Scenes and then three days working as the screen wife of John Ratzenberger in Monkey Up, she got the bug and there was no turning back.  In addition to continually working to become a better actor with workshops and classes, Laurie has worked as a Stand-In for several movies which have given her great respect for the entire filmmaking process.  

“Although a bit late to the game...I am enjoying this journey to my late started career.  Hey, twenty/thirty-something actors out there, my goal is to work with you. I have raised my children into wonderful adults.  Now, I want to use that experience and become yours in TV and FILM!”
