Kari Haley

Kari grew up as a typical Army brat - born in Utah and spending the next sixteen years of her life in Alabama, Colorado, Kansas, and Oklahoma. The bug to move every three to four years has become an ingrained personality trait and since graduating from college, she has lived in Mississippi, again in Colorado, Oregon, California, and finally back to Oregon. She currently works as a lab rat for a large-ish biotech company in Eugene, Oregon. In her spare time, she enjoys computer and board games, reading, sewing, hanging out on the beach, watching movies, and yoga.

Kari became aware of Firefly through a couple of co-workers who were HUGE Buffy and Angel fans. Unfortunately, due to the Fox Network's creative scheduling, she managed to miss every single episode. Several years later, while hanging out with some friends, she was introduced to the phenomenon that is Firefly . Instantly hooked, she borrowed her friend’s DVDs, watched the remainder of the episodes, returned the DVDs and bought her own.

Kari’s involvement with The Signal began just before the release of the first show. Having been friends with Les for a year or two (it’s kinda fuzzy), she instantly volunteered to help in any way she possibly could as soon as she found out what was going on. Somehow, she became a host and has been loving every minute of the process.
