Greetings Everyone! My name is Kara and I could not be more excited to join the Pegasus family. Here is a little bit about me: I was born and raised in Nau-gatuck, Connecticut, USA.
I graduated from DeSales University (located in Center Valley, Pennsylvania, USA) with a Bachelor’s of Science in both Chemistry and Biochemistry. During my tenor, there I presented my undergraduate research at two different International American-can Chemical Society’s Conferences. Soon after graduation I worked as both a formulations chemist and an analytical chemist for companies such as Unilever, Cookson Electronics, and Sun Products (now part of Henkel).
Always having a passion for teaching I graduated from the University of Bridgeport with a Masters in Science of Education concentrated in Secondary Science Education. Upon graduation, I have not looked back! Teaching has helped me share my love and passion for Science which I am excited to share with all of you! I also love to dance, being a student for 15 years and a dance teacher for 5. Just as dance is a passion of mine so is travel. I have been to Canada, Italy, Greece, Poland, and Finland!
