Chef Laura grew up in a food-industry Italian family in Pennsylvania, and attended Penn State before working as an accountant in Washington D.C. In 2008, she traveled to Italy to learn classic pasta making, and was hooked. Shortly thereafter, Chef Laura attended L'Academie de Cuisine where she learned French cooking methods, and in 2009 she began working as a personal chef. Chef Laura enjoys teaching proper cooking techniques rather than particular recipes.

What a fun night! Chef Laura was an excellent teacher and host. We honed our knife skills chopping up veggies for the soup, stuffed mushrooms, and sauce. We learned all about different types of mushrooms and how to clean and cook them. So many things to learn! And in the end, the meal was delicious and we had plenty of leftovers to take home along with the recipes. (My mother-in-law was also pleased that she and Chef Laura attended the same university... LOL.)

We loved Chef Laura’s mushroom lovers class. The food was delicious and we learned great tips and tricks (including some useful knife skills). She printed the recipes out for us at the end so we could recreate the meal. Chef Laura was kind, encouraging, and knowledgeable. Highly recommend!
