Laura Wrede
My first real career was real estate. I left the industry when I remarried. I joined my husband in his printing and graphics business where, among other things, I learned computer design and small business operations. I was also crazy busy in those days raising five kids while working full-time.
When the kids left home I went back into the real estate industry planning to work for another twenty years and then retire.
Then winds of change blew in like a hurricane as the real estate market crashed and my retirement landscape changed. That was the turning point. I decided to pursue my true passions: art, photography, and writing.
I love being creative. Whether it s writing articles for Yahoo and other publications, working on a photo shoot, making art, or working with business clients at PGS Studio, I spend most of my time creating something.
I guess sometimes it takes a storm to blow you in the right direction.
