She believes beauty goes beyond the surface—it’s about building confidence, fostering connections, and creating a sense of community.

As the owner of Easy Girl Skincare and SugarBang—her brand offering sugaring services, advanced training, and a merchandise line she created—Laura inspires others to embrace their unique beauty while mastering their craft. Her favorite part of teaching is watching her students grow into confident professionals, ready to make a difference in their clients’ lives.
