About Me

I'm Laura Ramsey, founder of Aura Impact. I bring more than 20 years of experience building and managing social impact partnerships across the nonprofit, public, and private sectors.

Before launching my business, I spent thirteen years at UNICEF, progressively managing partnerships with American Airlines, BeyGOOD (Beyoncé Knowles-Carter’s Foundation), Disney, Epic Games, Garnier, Gucci, H&M, Marriott, Visa and Xylem. My team consistently raised more than $70m/year, delivering more when needs were greatest - during the COVID-19 pandemic, and the onset of the war in Ukraine. One of my career highlights was launching a campaign with Epic Games to raise $27m for kids and promote the latest Fortnite release - in less than two weeks.

My work has contributed to accelerating research into breast cancer, promoting digital inclusion, improving access to quality education, water & sanitation, and increased investments in public health research and measures.

I hold a BA from the University of Oxford, a Professional Diploma in Marketing (CIM) and Corporate Communications certificate from Cornell.

I'm based in the US Tri-state area, am open to travel, and working with clients on both sides of the Atlantic.
