Growing up on a farm taught Kara the value of hard work and resiliency, which have been lessons she has kept with her into adulthood. Intentional in her career, she has built expertise in user-centered design and product development which eventually led her into the social impact space. There she found purpose and passion in her work leading business development and philanthropic partnerships in low and middle-income countries. She then challenged herself to expand her expertise into the broader ESG space learning how to track a corporation’s progress towards their sustainability goals in a meaningful and accurate way. Kara has a passion for driving a positive impact and sees the value and power in private-public partnerships to do so.
