A late night at the Salt Institute, where it all began...

In Fall 2009, Laura attended the Salt Institute for Documentary Studies where she learned how to produce, write, narrate, and edit audio documentaries and multimedia work. After graduating, she started volunteering at WMPG, Portland’s Community Radio Station where she became the PSA Manager. In the Summer of 2010, Laura began interning with the NPR show State of the Re:Union. In August 2010 she moved to Detroit and began interning in the production department at WDET, Detroit Public Radio. Six months later she was hired as a producer of WDET’s live, two-hour long daily talk show, The Craig Fahle Show. Currently she is working as a freelancer as well as volunteering her time to WDET for various projects.
