Vered Kleinberger
|
Vered has spent most of her life in Georgia...growing up in Metro Atlanta and attending Emory University. Upon completion of a BA in Cultural Anthropology, she moved to Burlington, Vermont. With her options wide open, she took any interesting jobs that came her way. These included scooping ice cream at Ben & Jerry’s flagship store, cooking for a local restaurant, serving on the crew (and then later as crew leader) for the Winooski Valley Park District, and helping the beginner skiers and snowboarders on the bunny slope at Bolton Valley. However, she always knew that education was her primary interest, so Vered moved back to Georgia, tutored local students, and then began Educational Excursions, a non-profit organization that offers hands-on, interactive programs for kids. Vered runs the day-to-day operations at the Mountain Conservation Trust. She enjoys having a direct impact on preserving the beautiful North Georgia mountains while getting to know many of the wonderful folks who live in Pickens and the surrounding counties. |
