Laura Burstein helps drivers get the most out of their cars. She combines technical savvy with a love of fashion and design, and believes our vehicles are extensions of who we are. Laura built her expertise reporting and test-driving for companies like Edmunds.com, Forbes, CNET and Car and Driver. She is also President of the Motor Press Guild, the largest automotive media organization in North America.

Before succumbing to her lifelong passion for cars, Laura covered consumer electronics and co-authored a best-selling computer reference book. Her "techie" roots give her the chops to translate geeky jargon into words the rest of us can understand. And she knows that even though we love our cars, most of us don't want to be engineers. We just want the darn things to work -- and look fabulous.
