Laura Laing is the girl who is convinced that everyone can do math. Really. As a self-proclaimed math evangelist, she rejects the idea that you are not good at math. Did you forget the tools that you need to do the basic math required to get through the day? It's likely. Are you afraid of math? Maybe. Can you overcome all of these challenges? Abso-tootin'-lutely. A freelance writer for more than 13 years, Laing has been published in a wide range of publications, from Parade to Baltimore's City Paper. She also works with corporations, small businesses and non-profits in developing compelling content and marketing materials. With a degree in math education and experience teaching high school, she is a freelance curriculum developer, writing online lessons, video scripts and test items for a variety of clients.
