Kelly Schaeffer, K-12 Outreach Coordinator

I graduated from the University of Delaware with degrees in Wildlife Conservation and Entomology. While at UD, I discovered the world of avian research and fell in love with chasing birds around the woods. I spent a few years traveling and working as a field research technician which inspired me to pursue a career in Environmental Education. I went back to school and obtained my MS from the University of Wisconsin – Stevens Point in Environmental Education. I am thrilled to begin work with the Cornell Lab on the K-12 Education team to help students connect to birds and nature through scientific exploration.
