Kara Kornhauser

Ecologist

Inspiring Girls* Expeditions combines so many of my passions in one program and I had a blast instructing for Girls* in the Forest 2022. I received my master’s degree in Biology and have received a certificate in Scientific Teaching & Outreach from the University of Alaska Fairbanks. Teaching people about science and the outdoors gives me hope for the future, and inspires me to keep pursuing knowledge. I have led outdoor trips, outdoor field semesters, and have an interest in wilderness/emergency medicine. I spend my free time as a ski patroller in Fairbanks, a camp counselor and advocate for foster youth, and doing crafts like knitting and wood carving.
