She has been a Girl Scout since she was 6 years old, and a Girl Scout Volunteer for over 20 years, leading multiple Troops from Kindergarten through High School in outdoor survival skills, cookie sales, travel, and rocketry. She still volunteers today. Laura has a Bachelors from the University of Colorado, Colorado Springs, and a Masters from the University of Colorado, Denver.
