Moving out of the area for about 12 years, Laurie continued working as a chef and general manager of two full-service restaurants. Laurie returned to the area to manage her chef business. While doing this, serving the elderly became a passion of hers. She lives in La Crosse and her hobbies include gardening and cooking for friends and family. Laurie has one daughter, Rachel, who is now 29 years old and a Social Worker in Minneapolis, MN. She is excited to help provide healthy, well-rounded meals to the SpringBrook residents.
