Laura is committed to impact both in academia and beyond. She is currently co-organizing three ongoing professional development workshops (PDWs) at the Academy of Management (AOM) Annual Meeting. Each PDW has been well-attended with 100 to 200 attendees each. In 2023, Laura was invited on a burnout panel at AOM co-organized by Marissa Shandell and Adam Grant, along with Sue Ashford, Tracy Dumas, and Amy Edmondson. Her commitment and dedication to provide developmental and timely feedback has been recognized by the Academy of Management Review (AMR) with an Outstanding Reviewer Award in 2023, and an Outstanding Developmental Reviewer Award in 2024, when she also joined AMR’s Editorial Review Board. In 2020, her research on subjective time was recognized as a Best Paper by the Organizational Behavior Division at the Academy of Management (top 10% of papers).


Laura has written about her academic research in top practitioner-outlets such as Harvard Business Review, The Wall Street Journal, and Forbes. Her findings are often featured internationally, including in The New York Times, The Atlantic, The Economist, and Financial Times.
