Laura Fenstermaker

Board of Directors

Laura was pleased and honored to join the Board in the fall of 2017. Ashland Productions has been a part of Laura’s life for nearly 8 years. Her daughter Mary Kate started in the Ashland ACT! Program as a 7-year old. Through Mary Kate’s initial experience with ACT! Laura became the school’s parent volunteer.  Laura has always had a tremendous respect for Ashland because of its youth mentoring Mission. As a seasoned communications professional, she has spent her time between working at the Minnesota Capitol and for various professional Associations.  She loves the varied work that she has been afforded to do over the years, including: Managing people, writing articles and newsletters, executing strategic plans, fostering relationships with key stakeholders on issues, working with donors, and instituting special events. She hopes some of this experience will in some way benefit her work with Ashland. Laura holds a BS in Communications from F.S.U. and an MA in Organizational Leadership from the College of St. Kates.
