Professional Bio
Laura is the Co-Founder and Lead Charter Yacht Broker for her company, Catamaran Central LLC, a yacht brokerage firm located in South Florida, helping clients buy and sell catamarans as well as offering crewed charter yacht vacations. Laura graduated from Susquehanna University with a Bachelor’s degree in Psychology and a minor in Sociology. She earned her Master’s in Mental Health Counseling from Johnson State College. She went on to work in the mental health field, but when she and her husband got an opportunity to move to the U.S. Virgin Islands, she shifted her focus to the yachting world. She worked as an Operations Manager for the largest day charter company out of St. Thomas before eventually starting a yacht management company for crewed charters. Laura and her husband returned to the States to shift their focus from management to yacht sales and vacations, working for one of the largest yacht brokerage firms in the U.S. After several years working for someone else, they were ready to go out on their own, creating Catamaran Central. Laura loves to stay active and be outdoors. She has become a bit of a gym rat, staying heavily involved in her gym community, attending strength training classes several days a week and using her Peloton bike. She has two rescue dogs, one is 11 and the other is 13, both of whom she has had since they were small puppies.
