Laura Maddrey is a creative leader with more than 20 years of experience spanning graphic design, brand development, and team leadership. Her career has grown from hands-on design work into leading creative teams and shaping visual strategy, always grounded in strong fundamentals and a practical understanding of how creative work supports real business goals.
She studied at the University of Central Florida and the University of Florida, later earning her MFA from the Savannah College of Art and Design. That mix of broad academic foundation and deep creative training has shaped her approach: thoughtful, detail-oriented, and grounded in both concept and execution.
Originally from DeLand, Florida, Laura has lived and worked across the state, including Gainesville, Orlando, and Tampa, before settling in the north Atlanta suburbs. She now lives in Metro Atlanta with her husband, an IT executive in the healthcare industry, and their two young daughters. That blend of creative and technical perspectives at home mirrors much of her professional life, where collaboration between design, marketing, and technology is second nature.
In her current work, Laura manages both onshore and offshore technology talent supporting web presence and commercial applications, bridging creative direction with practical delivery. Outside of work, she enjoys traveling, gardening, crafts, baking, and creative projects that let her slow down and make things by hand. Whether she is leading teams, mentoring designers, or guiding complex digital work, she brings a steady, human approach to creativity that values experience, curiosity, and growth over trends.
