Laura Gilchrist is the Public Affairs Special Assistant at the National Museum of the Marine Corps. She graduated with her BA in Historic Preservation with a minor in Museum Studies from the University of Mary Washington in 2016 and her MA in Museum Studies from the University of Leicester, in the UK, in 2018. Her passions include collections management, museum immersion, and exhibition design, and she aspires to be the director of a museum. When she’s not busy working you can probably find her binge-watching the Harry Potter movies for the millionth time or reading books about the Romanov Family.
