Kara Yates
Kara has always had an eye for detail and thrives on organization and processes. It makes sense that for over fourteen years, Kara spent time as an English teacher in the Secondary setting. As her career in education grew, she found a love for technology and the doors it opened for her students. She has served as an eLearning Coach, Coordinator for the Indiana Department of Education, and Director of Instructional Technology. Kara finally left the school setting to become an EdTech consultant for districts all over the state of Indiana and a national trainer for Google. She is beyond thrilled to be back in her hometown working for a company that puts students’ needs first and has a passion for education.
Kara is a proud Evansville native. She now resides in Warrick County with her family. Kara can be found at home cooking with her three boys who seem to never have enough to eat. She is a pop culture junkie and will challenge anyone to some 80’s and 90’s trivia. Her family is constantly begging her to turn down the radio and stop singing so loudly. The next road trip is constant in conversation as Kara loves creating adventures with her boys and husband.
Kara’s perfect day would include Hallmark movies, being surrounded by water, Doritos, peanut M &M’s, and laughing with her friends!
