Her research focuses on the violin, cross-cultural interactions, and feminist perspectives. A Wiradjuri woman with mixed settler heritage from Central West New South Wales, Laura uses music to reframe Indigenous histories and reclaim Indigenous knowledge. With over 20 years of experience as a violinist, Laura has both performed and taught extensively. She recently featured on Aboriginal rapper DOBBY's album Warrangu and Uncle Roger Knox's forthcoming album. Laura is also a regular member of Deborah Cheetham Fraillon's Ensemble Dutala, performing at notable venues like the City Recital Hall in Sydney and the Garma Festival of Traditional Knowledges in Northeast Arnhem Land.
