Laura Joffre’s Biography
Bloomberg News summer intern 2020
I am a former professional ballet dancer turned journalist. Born in France, I worked in Germany for four years before settling in the UK in 2010 when I joined Scottish Ballet. My 14-year career as a ballerina took me around the world and gave me a unique life experience and specialist knowledge.
I graduated from the University of Salford with a first-class degree. I am starting my second career, to fulfil my passion for writing about people and their stories, from big issues to small anecdotes - to understand the world of today.
