While studying English Lit at the University of London her junior year, Laura developed an appreciation for Charles Dickens and clotted cream. After graduation, she took a mid-career break from her job in sales promotion to accept a graduate teaching fellowship and earn a master’s degree in Special Education. When the head of the creative department at her former agency went on maternity leave, however, Laura could not refuse the offer to step into her dream job. She remained in the corporate world until she had children.
