Laura K

Laura Kussman moved to Orcas Island in the spring of 2018 after meeting a longtime islander on a sailing adventure to Mexico.

She joins The Islands’ Sounder team after most recently working as an editor for the print publication “The Changing Times” and hosting artist residencies on the island. Kussman graduated from Gonzaga University with a bachelor’s of arts in journalism and philosophy in 2011. She is elated to work with the diligent and dedicated team at The Islands’ Sounder as a voice for and reflection of this community.

“May words always retain their power,” Kussman says.
