Biography

Laura joined Owen’s Leadership Development Program (LDP) in May 2017. Prior to joining the LDP team, Laura spent 6 years at Tivity Health (formerly Healthways) where she worked on leadership development, internal communications, and talent acquisition. In her last two years at Tivity Health, she focused on change management. This included helping colleagues lead as change agents, specifically related to rolling out enterprise-wide initiatives, managing through a CEO transition, and navigating the sale of the Total Health Population Business and Emerging Businesses to Sharecare. Receiving a Master’s Degree from Peabody in Organizational Leadership allowed Laura to shift her career focus to human resources and leadership development. Prior to her Masters, Laura worked to publish a whitepaper at the Institute for Workplace Innovation with the University of Kentucky, and in marketing and public relations at Hogan Lovells and Qorvis Communications in Washington, DC. Laura enjoys taking trips with family, patio time, spending time with her husband, and kitchen dance parties with her two little boys.
