Lindie joined the staff at Laura in 2015. She is responsible for group reservations and the daily operations of the historic site.
Joseph is responsible for all aspects of public relations, communications, marketing, and sales efforts at Laura. A part of the Laura team since 1996, he has an intimate knowledge of the history of the site from its founding as a sugar plantation in 1805 to its modern operations as a historic house museum. Joseph's particular expertise is contextualizing the French and Creole linguistic identities of the myriad of people, both free and enslaved, who lived here.
Joseph regularly contributes articles to publications and he is often invited to present at conferences and events in the U.S. and abroad that explore the complex stories of Louisiana's French and Creole-speaking populations.
En plus de l'anglais, Joseph parle français et le kréyol lalwizyann.
