Karla was raised in the village of Tortuguero, her mother, Miss Junie Martinez, is one of the founding members of the Tortuguero community and is well loved in the area. She owns the well known hotel and restaurant, Miss Junie.s, in the Tortuguero Village. .She.s my hero. says Karla.
Before guiding, Karla worked for the INBIO, the National Institute for Biodiversity. She is especially grateful for the time spent with the famed scientist, Daniel Janzen, who was her supervisor while collecting specimens for INBIO in the Guanacaste Conservation areas. She is proud of the fact that a new species of nocturnal butterfly in the Geometridae family was named after her,
Nemoria Karlae.
