About Me: 

My official conference bio cos I'm waaay too engrossed in West Wing errr work to de-fluff it. 

Laurel has been a virtual communities/online Community/Social Network consultant since 1989 when she was involved in Twin Peaks IRC and Usenet groups online. For the last decade, Laurel has been running virtual worlds and MMORPGs as a game moderator, forum admin, customer service manager and marketing consultant. Laurel has a patent in social network currencies and is considered a leading social media monetization strategist worldwide. 


Since 2005, Laurel has been teaching social media classes, including at the University of Sydney, has advised projects such as Interactive (social media) Emmy award winning Scorched.TV and recently went to Saudi Arabia to work on the iMatter Project for Middle East Broadcasting, teaching Arabic women how to blog and use social media to gain a "voice". She also works with the Singapore Government on their social media strategies. 

Laurel is currently in the Power150 bloggers for Marketing and Media worldwide, as collated by the global Advertising Age magazine, placing her in the top 3 marketing and media bloggers in Australia.
