Laura Parise

Writer and Editor

United States of America

Having studied abroad in Australia and lived in many different cities, I've come to realize the beauty in stories; the ability to paint a picture with words when a camera won't suffice. I've always loved poetry and writing, but as I became a professional, I realized the beauty in relationships and the reward of helping others find their own story.

I am actively seeking roles in writing and editorial. Having the skills necessary to critically edit and proofread multiple genres, implement publishing processes, and facilitate meetings, I would be an asset to both digital and paper-based publishing interfaces. With a variety of professional backgrounds in meeting planning, marketing, tutoring, and administration, my experiences provide me with proficiencies in communication, organization, grammar, sentence structure, multimedia utilization, and research development that will carry me successfully through any writing or editorial role.
