I'm Laura, I just turned 22 years old and I live in an apartment in Az with my two cats Tibby and Corkscrew. I'm originally from a small town in Texas but I moved to Arizona when I was offered a full scholarship in music. I play the bassoon and steel drums, steel drums are my passion but the bassoon pays for my education. I've traveled twice to Trinidad to play in the panorama steel drum competition, the most recent being this past february. I played on the womens rugby team here at the U of A for three years until I had to take some time off due to an injury, but I'm hoping that I'll be able to play again this year. I work part time for a pet sitting agency, and I also do volunteer work at a youth center for gay and lesbian kids. I do everything from talk to them about their problems, sometimes find them shelter because they are having a bad home life or help them with the homework. But more than anything I try to be a positive role model.
