Laura Whipple

In addition to managing the financial nitty-gritty at Pinball, Laura is busy at work on the development of Scout Books and this blog – Bangback. She often fantasizes about having an extra set of arms and perhaps a few more hours in the day. In her fleeting free time, she loves getting her hands in the dirt, cozying up with a good read, and exploring the marvels of Portland with her sweet daughters Phoebe and Alice.
