Kelly Schaeffer works with the Cornell Lab of Ornithology’s K-12 Education team to reach educators across North America and help them connect kids to nature, build science skills, and foster a lifelong passion for birds. Kelly graduated from the University of Delaware with a degree in Wildlife Conservation and Entomology. While at UD, she discovered the world of avian research and fell in love with chasing birds around the woods. After a few years traveling and working as a field research technician, Kelly was inspired to pursue a career in Environmental Education. She went back to school and obtained an MS from the University of Wisconsin-Stevens Point in Environmental Education.
