Hey there!

I'm Laura Middlesworth.

I’m an instructional design consultant based in Eau Claire, WI, and the owner of IndieLo Design LLC.

At my core, I’m a problem solver who is also passionate about helping people - this combination fuels my pragmatic approach as a learning and development practitioner.

Oh, and I fly airplanes for fun!
