Since entering the Yuk Yuks Search for Canada's Funniest New Comic early on in her career, Laverty has traveled from Vancouver to St. John's. In 2001 she toured Johannesburg, Durban and Cape Town, South Africa. She is a favourite with clubs, community fundraisers and Military posts. In October of 2006 she performed at a NATO base in Germany and hopes one day to travel the world performing for all of the military personnel. Laverty's big dream in life was to become a sex therapist, but since that involved going back to school she decided that hosting "The Everything To Do With Sex Show" in 2004 was credit enough.

Laverty's on stage persona is proud to be provocative. Her Mae West come-hither attitude will draw you in and her flirtatious delivery has been embraced by both sexes.
