Hello! I’m Kara. Welcome to my corner of the internet.

I'm currently exploring my next chapter of work in the climate space. I'm especially excited about fusion and the potential for limitless clean energy. I wrote about a future powered by fusion here.

I serve on the board of several nonprofits across industries of interest, including education, disability, immigration, and philanthropic impact.

Previously, I spent 17 years working in sports marketing. I've been lucky to work as a Senior Advisor to the U.S. Olympic & Paralympic Committee, as a Global Director of Marketing at Visa, and as the co-author of a book, Pure Grit: Stories of Remarkable People Living with Physical Disability.

I live in Bend, Oregon with my family. I enjoy the outdoors, books, languages, math education, travel, and kids.
