Support Staff

Sam graduated from Kirkwood Community College in Iowa, earning her Associates Degree in Marketing and Management. She worked with Brad and Lee long before In Touch Physical Therapy and Sports Medicine, and was their obvious choice as Clinic Manager from the beginning. She is our longest tenured employee and not only oversees the clinic’s daily operations, but takes pride in designing the image and feel of the clinic. She also takes pride in spearheading our clinic’s involvement in the community.

During her personal time, Sam enjoys quilting, crafting, traveling, spending time with her husband, Michael, and their two children with both of their growing families.

Lauran is a born and raised local. She graduated from North Idaho College with her Associates Degree in General Studies in 2010, and continued her education at Boise State University to obtain her Bachelor's Degree in Communication with an emphasis in Journalism in 2012. She had previously been a part of the In Touch team, and although life took her in a different direction for a while she was elated to be welcomed back as the Administrative Manager in 2024. She is at the forefront of our insurance verification and authorization process here at the clinic.

Outside of the clinic Lauran spends most of her time with her husband, Wesley, their two children, and their two dogs. She will often be out taking photos for her side business, Bella Vita Photography, and feeding into her passion for capturing nature and the beauty of life. In the past Lauran played softball for Post Falls High School, and North Idaho College strengthening her pride and dedication for the community. Lauran also has a love of sports, reading, movies, travelling, and game nights.
