Laura Olson, MA, NCC, LPC was born in South Dakota but grew up in Laramie, Wyoming.  She earned a bachelor’s degree in Marketing with a minor in German and graduated from the Honors Program at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln (UNL).  After working a job with a large business process consulting company in Chicago, family needs brought her back to her beloved hometown where she met her husband and started at the University of Wyoming (UW) as a Pre-professional Health Sciences Academic Advisor.
