Hi! I’m Laura Bradley, and I tell stories that stick.
I’m an award-winning reporter, editor, and digital strategist with 15+ years of professional writing experience, including 10 years of full-time newsroom experience — so I know what separates a press release from a real story. That’s why editors and clients rely on me as a trusted partner.
My byline has appeared in national publications including Vanity Fair, Vulture, The Atlantic, The Washington Post, The Daily Beast, Yahoo! News, and Slate. I have also worked with national corporations including Intuit QuickBooks, PayPal, LendingTree, Danone North America, and the Mars Petcare division Kinship Co.

Reporting
I’m an experienced reporter with 10+ years of experience across beats including arts + culture, lifestyle, business, and science reporting.
I spent the first decade of my career in newsrooms including Slate, Vanity Fair, and The Daily Beast, where I climbed the ladder to senior reporter.
As a freelance journalist, I focus primarily on the entertainment beat, including its intersections with politics and power.
Marketing
As a seasoned journalist, I help brands develop narratives that sound less like marketing copy and more like actual stories.
Most of my clients work in:
- B2B SaaS
- Pet care
- Tech/cybersecurity
- Consumer packaged goods (CPG)
… But I’ve also done a whole lot more and am always looking to expand.
Public Speaking
Apart from writing, sit-down interviews are my favorite part of what I do — and they’re even more fun when the audience gets to see and hear them in real time.
Through the years, I’ve moderated panels, introduced film screenings with talent interviews, appeared on (and interviewed guests for) podcasts, and led university-level classes.
Need someone comfortable speaking in front of a crowd?
