Before coming to D.C., Laurie was a weekend anchor and reporter at Hearst-Argyle's KOAT-TV in Albuquerque, N.M.
She is originally from the New York area, and graduated from Amherst College in Amherst, Mass., with a degree in French.
Laurie and her husband, Michael, live in Arlington, Va. They enjoy traveling, cooking, reading and biking.
