​Laura Roth, a marketing professional, became a STEM supporter and facilitator in the course of raising her 3 gifted children.  Lots of camps, classes and competitions! With over 12 years of volunteering with the FIRST robotics programs, she has shared her passion with many families.  We thought her wide variety of experiences made her an expert for our discussion tonight.
