Kara Raynoha is a founder and technologist with nine years of hands-on experience building resilient web platforms and infrastructure. As CEO of Worm.so she leads product, architecture, partnerships, and fundraising to create a community-first reading platform that routes value back to libraries and indie bookstores rather than retail conglomerates. She also co-founded Studious AI and runs Eclosion Tech, bringing practical experience translating educator needs into curriculum tooling and delivering custom software for small organizations. A sysadmin-turned-developer, Kara prioritizes stability, privacy, and scalable architecture—skills honed across roles from enterprise credit systems to healthcare IT. Based in the Greater Burlington area, she blends operational discipline with mission-driven product design, often tackling trade-offs between community goals and technical constraints. Less obvious: she consistently frames technology as an enabler for local institutions, not a replacement, and builds partnerships to prove that approach can be sustainable.
