Laura joined Sansiveri in 2022 and brings nearly forty years of experience as an accounting professional to her role of senior manager in the tax department. She specializes in working with S and C corporations and partnerships in the service, manufacturing, and real estate industries. Laura also assists multi-state entities in dealing with economic nexus and unitary filings.

After taking a bookkeeping class in high school, Laura, who has always been a proactive planner, set her sights on becoming a CPA in her sophomore year.

Described as “loyal and dedicated”, Laura believes in the value of being a resource to clients and colleagues, as well as treating others with respect. Her favorite quote, “It’s not the breaths you take but the moments that take your breath away,” which reminds her to enjoy life, not just get through the days.
Laura resides in Swansea with her husband, Jamie, and their three sons, Michael, Christopher, and Steven. She is an avid reader who has an ambitious annual goal of finishing 100 books in a year. When she’s not working or reading, Laura enjoys crafts, including knitting/crocheting, photography, and needlework.
