From small town Bohemian to truehearted New Orleanian, Laura Kuhn lives a life less ordinary. Growing up in a one-traffic-light town called Crescent City, Laura spent her childhood in Florida, swimming in lakes and playing in the backyard woods in makeshift forts and a brokedown treehouse. As a country girl at heart, Laura experienced the big city at the age of seven, experiencing museums and Broadways shows while visiting family in New York. Her early exposure to culture, music, and the arts influenced her life's pursuit to the aesthetic realm.

​

As an aspiring you artist and performer in her young adult years, Laura pursued acting, theatrical make-up and painting during her college years, graduating from UCF and moving to Los Angeles to attend MUD, the Make-Up Designory in Hollywood. Along the way, she lived briefly in New Orleans working as a waitress and a mime on Bourbon Street. Laura dressed in a neon colored, fish-scaled, handcrafted mermaid costume to make extra money by sitting on the corner of Bourbon and Orleans Streets to pose for photos with tourists.
