Laura Gómez is a passionate theatre educator who loves bringing creativity and storytelling into the classroom. Raised in the Upper West Side of New York City, she developed a deep appreciation for the arts and their power to inspire and connect people. Her love for education runs in the family—her mother worked at Twin Parks Montessori for almost 20 years, instilling in Laura a deep respect for teaching and child development. Outside of the classroom, Laura plays guitar, sings, paints, and enjoys digital design and drawing. She believes theatre is a powerful tool for building confidence, creativity, and community, and she’s excited to share that passion with her students.
