Hey there! I'm Kira.
I live in Seattle, where I spend my free time getting outside: backpacking, biking, skiing, birding.
Most recently a bit of canoeing.
I grew up near Worcester, MA and went to school at Lehigh University in Bethlehem, PA where I studied Computer Science Engineering and Design and a minor in Entrepreneurship.
My passion is creating “Aha!” moments for students. Sometimes that looks like a game that helps them imagine a new future, or a building lab that makes technical topics click for the first time.
I believe there’s no substitute for experiencing something firsthand, so I strive to build safe, fun, experiential, and hands-on learning environments so that everyone can feel the magic of building.
