Rockstar🎓
Top SchoolKiri Carini is a technical communications lead and geospatial communicator with a decade of experience translating earth data into compelling stories and tools for open source and research communities. Based in Tucson, she shapes messaging and outreach at Development Seed while previously building campus-wide geospatial literacy programs and event programs at the University of Arizona. Her background spans applied GIS, science communication, emergency management grant programs, and large infrastructure recovery projects, giving her a rare blend of storytelling, technical cartography, and program management skills. Kiri is skilled at turning complex spatial analyses into accessible visuals and workshops, and has a track record of convening cross-sector partners—from students to government agencies—to amplify impact. An understated strength is her history of managing high-stakes funding and events (from multimillion-dollar recovery projects to national conferences), which informs pragmatic, audience-centered communications.
