Meet Kari

Kari Houghtaling

Lead Scholar Advisor

Kari moved to Milwaukee after college graduation to serve as an AmeriCorps member with an education nonprofit. What started as no long-term post-grad plan has turned into a career in education and a home in Milwaukee, where Kari has spent the last 12 years supporting scholars in navigating the road to and through college. She truly enjoys getting to know students and being part of their journeys of self-discovery, growth, and achieving their goals, and she appreciates being part of an organization that emphasizes partnership, collaboration, and innovation to help students thrive.
