A wild Alaska girl, I was born and raised in Sitka and grew up commercial fishing with my Papa. I have been self-employed most of my life and LOVE it! My motto is: Work Hard...PLAY Harder!

I am an encourager, a leader and a mighty woman of God. I know how to love, laugh and live. I am a homeschooling mom who also mentors young mothers. I lift up the broken and show them hope. I can be found on Twitter @LaraAKGirl.

In my free time I can be found hiking, cycling, gardening and photographing everything I see. I am dedicated to my friends & family, helping them grow personally & their businesses.
