Zara Rutherford's 2025 biography
About Zara Rutherford
In 2022, Zara Rutherford circumnavigated the globe in a small aircraft and became the youngest woman to fly solo around the world. Her journey lasted 4 months and 26 days.
Zara was born into a family of aviators and was lucky to have great role models in her parents and grandparents. She wants to build on this heritage and with her flight Zara aims to encourage young women to pursue their dreams and reduce the gender gap in aviation as well as in science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM).
Talking about her journey, Zara has said: “Only 5% of commercial pilots and 15% of computer scientists are women. With my flight I want to show young women that they can be bold, ambitious and make their dreams come true”.
Zara is available for public appearances, brand endorsements as well as public and conference speaking. Her topics include Women Empowerment, Women in STEM, Equality, Motivation and Inspiration and Peak Performance to name just a few.
