Bio

When she was little, her dad told her that if she picked a career that she truly loved then she would never have to work a day of her life. This probably wasn’t what he had in mind.

It started innocently enough - learning to juggle in a middle school play in her little Iowa hometown. Several years later, Laura has made a career out of her passion. Her first performances were at street festivals in her hometown, wowing audiences with fire manipulation.

After joyfully juggling her way through college, she graduated and got her first job behind a desk. The story doesn’t end here, though. After a couple of months realizing that a “normal” job would never be fulfilling, Laura packed everything in her car and moved to the east coast. After many trials and tribulations success started coming her way.

In 2008 Laura won 1st place at the World Juggling Federation, ranking her as one of the best jugglers in the world. Then on the fifth season of America's Got Talent Laura performed inside her human-sized hamster ball, a prop that was so impressive that it made Howie Mandel exclaim, “I love you! You are my soul mate.”

In a career that is dominated by men she has risen to the top. Never settling for average, Laura has invented props and brought new life to old favorites.

She has performed all over the world and now resides in Des Moines, Iowa with her wonderful husband/assistant Ryan.
