KAT
HABER

She moves between Homer, Vail & Waikoloa like weather — arriving suddenly, changing everything, and leaving people wondering what just happened.

Homer, AKKachemak Bay, wild growing edges

Vail, CO Legendary Back Bowls, washitay

Waikoloa, HI Lava flows & moonrise

USAFA '77–'802nd class of women, first of everything

Somewhere between the Pentagon and a ski run in the back bowls of Vail, Kat Haber decided the world needed protecting and that she was absolutely the person to do it. She pioneeredwomen cadets at the United States Air Force Academy, which is a polite way of saying she has been doing impossible things since before it was fashionable. She has since marched 3,500 miles from Los Angeles to Washington D.C. eight months on foot to shout at a politicians that weren't listening and got arrested at FERC protesting fracking, because of course she did. She Plugged IN, Charged UP 15,000 miles driving 4 times as far in ⅓ the time to model managing range anxiety in an EV.

She has organized TEDxVail, TEDxVailCOUNTDOWN, TEDxYouth@Homer, TEDxYouth@Vail, TEDxWaikoloa, and spoken at TEDMED which means she has essentially built a small TED empire from mountain air and audacity. Her volunteer teams have helped generate a piece of the 9 billion views that TEDx Talks have accumulated. She now wonders how to connect those dots for even more impact. Curiosity is her superpower and her affliction.

Peace · Climate · Urgency

As a Climate Reality Leader trained in Chicago, Denver, LA, Atlanta, and online during a pandemic, she mentors other Climate Reality Leaders. She founded TRUST Climate Action Strategists and the LIVING BRIGHTLY model which sounds like a workshop and actually is one, just with higher stakes than your average weekend retreat. She's also Charter President of the WE Rotary eClub for International Peace, planting second-generation Hiroshima atomic bomb survivor trees around the globe because symbolism should be alive and growing.

She studied Conscious Evolution with Barbara Marx Hubbard, coordinated Lifespring's masters courses in the ‘80s, and served 20 years on the Board of the WILD Foundation and decades convener of the Elder’s Council of Board Presidents of the Center for Alaskan Coastal Studies, a CV that makes most people need a nap. Kat skis feverishly. Laughs generously. Amplifies women, Indigenous, and youth voices like she is their megaphone with legs.

"We need everyone everywhere trying everything as quickly as possible."
— Kat
