I’m InterestEd
Hello, friends and fellow learners! I'm so glad you’re here, and I can’t wait to share my journey with you. My name is Laura Mukerji (pronounced “Moo-ker”-”G”), and I'm passionate about creating a space where learning feels exciting and personal—welcome to InterestEd!
For over 15 years, I've had the joy of working in many different educational settings. Whether it’s been in innovative learning centers, traditional classrooms, homeschooling, or virtual schools, each experience has taught me something unique about how students learn and grow. My heart is in helping every child find their spark and discover what makes them curious and excited about learning. I love bringing people together, which is also why I serve on the boards of the Wausau Conservatory of Music and the Wisconsin Association for Talented and Gifted (WATG). Being part of these communities lets me advocate for the creative and intellectual potential of all students, and I’m incredibly grateful for that.
Right now, I’m on a new adventure—I’m thrilled to share that I’ve been accepted into the Gifted and Talented Add-on Graduate Program at the University of Wisconsin Stevens Point! This program feels like a perfect fit for me as I dive deeper into understanding how to support gifted learners. I can't wait to learn from each course and apply those insights to help others in their educational journeys. In addition to my course, I’ll also be growing InterestEd and teaching courses both online and in person here in the Wausau community, so I’m excited to connect with learners near and far.
When I'm not immersed in education, you’ll often find me at home with my wonderful family—my supportive husband and our three inquisitive daughters. We share our space with a couple of lively dogs, a curious cat, and a growing collection of plants that I love nurturing. They all remind me daily of the beauty in growth, both in nature and in education.
I hope you'll join me in this journey of exploration and learning. Whether you’re a parent seeking new ways to support your child, an educator looking for fresh ideas, or just someone who loves learning, I’m excited to connect with you. Let’s embrace the adventure together and create a vibrant community of curious minds!
Warmest wishes,
Laura
