About

Hi! I'm Laura Oppenheimer, a writer and marketer living in the sunny Mission District of San Francisco. Originally from the Bay Area, I spent six years in Chicago (fun, but too cold) before moving back to California. Currently a Marketing Manager at OpenDNS, my primary focuses are on social media, online marketing and PR work, with some community management thrown in for extra emphasis.

Prior to OpenDNS, I worked as a marketing manager and community advocate at Ning. I previously worked as a writer in Chicago, covering everything from podcasts, to electronics recycling issues, to pet toy reviews, to restaurant profiles. Prior to that, I worked doing communications for Chicago's Adler Planetarium, America's first planetarium. When not working, I spend time cooking, running, and volunteering for PAWS SF and the University of Chicago. I graduated with an honors degree in political science from the University of Chicago in 2006.
