Director of Finance and Operations
Meet Kaari. Kaari has been with Psyched before it was officially Psyched Services, helping its founders turn the organization into a reality from January 2017. The company’s resident operations guru, Kaari has more than seven years’ experience, and received a bachelor’s degree in mathematics from University of Texas at Austin and an M.S. in applied mathematics from Texas State University.
Here’s what she’d say about herself:
Best part about working with Psyched: I love the team I work with, and I genuinely care about the success of the company. I love that I can make my own hours, and I’m trusted to take initiative or make decisions.
Core personal values: Integrity and truthfulness – which to me is a “super value.”
What I find most rewarding about my role: When my team is successful. I’ve grown with the company and now oversee a department and a team, and it’s very rewarding when they’re successful and are happy in their jobs.
Most people would be surprised to learn: I’m currently training for a 262-mile river canoe race that starts in San Marcos, TX and ends in the gulf of Mexico: The Texas Water Safari.
Other things I’m Psyched about: Drumming, canoeing, comedy, gardening, sitting on patios and sipping mimosas with live music.
