Laura Sandberg Headshot

Copywriter

It's hard to say what started the drive for knowledge and story in Laura's life. It might have been unregulated hours of reading as a young child, or maybe it was already innate within her. Either way, she's always sought new adventures. Though nearly every field of study appealed to her, Laura knew that she would need to write, so she chose to pursue an English degree, and later a screenwriting degree. She knew that no matter what she chased in her career or hobbies, knowing how to express herself in story would come in handy.

Creative Writer to Copywriter
While studying creative writing officially, Laura often took opportunities to write outside of the realms of poetry and prose, writing training manuals, travel blogs, film reviews, speeches, and more. It is now her great privilege to work with JamboJon to write content for beautiful websites for businesses across the country.

EDUCATION
MA - Screenwriting | EdinburghNapier University, Scotland
BA - English | Brigham Young University - Idaho

PROFESSIONAL EXPERIENCE
13 years as an alpha/beta reader and editor
7+ years of technical writing
14+ years of creative writing

You can connect with Laura or any member of the JamboJon team. We look forward to hearing from you.
