In 2008 Laura won 1st place at the World Juggling Federation, ranking her as one of the best jugglers in the world. Then on the fifth season of America's Got Talent Laura performed inside her human-sized hamster ball, a prop that was so impressive that it made Howie Mandel exclaim, “I love you! You are my soul mate.”

Never settling for average, Laura has invented props and brought new life to old favorites. She has performed all over the world - at theaters, amusements parks, conventions, schools, television, corporate events and festivals. She now resides in Des Moines, Iowa with her wonderful husband Ryan and her two daughters.
