Making things generally
nicer-looking since 2011

Hi, I'm Laura!

Philly born and raised, I am a product of this city brimming with art, culture, and grit. I am a creative, that is, my laptop is glued to my hands, and I'm permanently eye fatigued. To relax, I love a good horror movie, I dog sit, and I cook like nobody's business. If I'm not home, you'll find me at a local dive with a glass of whiskey and pool cue in hand (I suck though). I think I'm funny, but no one will admit it. I’ll let you be the judge.

  • Entrepreneur
    I love a good challenge! What is more grinding than creating a brand and business all on your own? Nothing. Ok, maybe heart surgery or something.

  • Creative Director
    Combining my background in design and my knack for big picture planning, I get all the web and design projects done to satisfaction at The 215 Guys as CD.

  • Interactive Designer
    ‍‍I have 6 years and counting in web design under my belt. From wireframing, to designing, to organizing things for developers, I can do it in my sleep.

  • Branding Mind
    ‍‍I make logos and branding guides for a majority of my freelance projects. My favorite kind of projects I do are really for fun, but the side cash doesn't hurt.

  • Artist & Maker
    Sometimes I need to get away from the blue light of my laptop and work with my hands. Check out my newest project, Moodio Studio, where I make things.

Moodio

What I'm busy with!

I created Moodio, a life and home design studio where I create whimsical solutions for everyday objects and daily comforts. The Moodio style is clean, bold, fun, and cozy with unique patterns or details that twist expectation and elevate a room.

Some small businesses I opened and closed in the past 5 years.

I ran these businesses with as much gumption as I could muster, all while holding down a full time job, but alas, shit happens (like a global pandemic and burn out) and sometimes the smartest thing to do is close up shop, take what you learned, and put your energy towards something new.

The 215 Guys

Where I've worked full time for 6 years!

I am the Creative Director at The 215 Guys, a boutique web design agency located in Old City Philly. I work with a talented group of brainy yet hilarious individuals that I get to see at my 9-to-5. We like plants, can you tell?
