Laura Danforth is a mom of two, Florida State grad, Lakeland native, and the President of BlueWave. She’s been in staffing since 2009 and has held literally every role along the way: recruiter, sales, sales management, VP, and now President, scaling and leading teams across multiple markets. That full-circle experience means she’s never too far removed from what it actually takes to do this job well, and her team knows it. Strategic, driven, and decisive, Laura leads with a clarity of vision that keeps priority and purpose at the forefront. When she finally gets a moment away from it all, she’s at the beach or on the water with her family.
Blue Wave: With 2 young kids and a busy life, her BlueWave is out on a quiet island in a remote location, no stress, no agenda, no timeline, just living!
