Kayla Ahr is the Director of the Denver Metro Regional Science and Engineering Fair hosted at CU Denver each year. While she has been with the fair since 2018, she first joined the CU Denver community through the University's K-12 outreach programs that would bring her to the campus where she would complete her BA and MA in Sociology while continuing to further her leadership within the science fair program. Kayla found her passion for academic and scientific outreach through her extensive experience in Problem-Based Learning and strongly values cross-disciplinary research and the importance properly communicated science has in shaping our future. This appreciation has driven her career path in working to develop STEM pipeline programs to support future generations of socially informed researchers.
