Laurra Davis is the founder and creative director of Leeds-based social media agency, Brilliant. They manage social media accounts for some of the UK’s best food and drink brands and celebrate their 13th year in business this month. At Brilliant Laurra oversees the creative output of the agency, and has a strong focus on tone of voice for brands and delivering that through social media content and advertising.

Laurra has lived in Leeds from age of 2 and studied theatre and creative writing, going on to form her first business called One Life Ceremonies with her mum when she was 23, bringing her writing skills to life through personally written and conducted ceremonies including funerals, baby namings and weddings.

Through running One Life she found a talent for social media marketing and became well known as someone who ‘knew what they were doing’ with Twitter and LinkedIn, so back in 2011, she started a side business of social media training which went on to become Brilliant.

Laurra is also a co-founder of B-corp certified sustainable product design agency, FIVE Create. They are the team behind the multi award winning air purification unit called Briiv (pronounced Breathe) which is the world’s most sustainable air purifier.

Alongside looking after her two children she’s also a Trustee for The Leeds Library which is the oldest surviving subscription library of its type in the UK. Socials are:
