Laura Gaetano doesn't want to be a manager

Away from Keyboard

Laura Gaetano was born in Italy, and by my count has lived in at least four different countries. Her multicultural upbringing has had a huge impact on her life. In fact, she currently works at the Travis Foundation with a focus on diversity and inclusion.

We talk about her upbringing, her troubles with art school, the work she’s doing now, and changes that may be on the horizon.
