A creative at heart, Laura began her career as a session drummer on European tours for a variety of established artists. This introduced her to artist management, working under music’s legendary PR Alan Edwards, at The Outside Organisation, where she worked with seminal artists such as David Bowie, Lenny Kravitz and The Spice Girls. And then back on stage again a few years later when she landed a record deal with Island Records.
Later on, during a 5 year stint living in Los Angeles, Laura's passion and curiosity around creativity widened, as she was introduced to photo and film production and found herself working with Hollywood’s A-list including Mary J Blige, Sandra Bullock, George Clooney and Quentin Tarantino to name a few!
Cut to 2013 and Creative Blood was born, Laura's Creative + Production agency, which has become the go-to creative partner for Fortune 500 influential global brands, agencies and editorial platforms, those seeking to create exceptional work through trusted partnership. We’re talking Apple, Beats by Dre, Burberry, Levi’s, Adidas, Vogue, Virgin Voyages and many more.
