Bio

Katy has been an educator for thirty years, has opened a charter school, served as its leader, and has helped schools win over $28.5M in grant funding. Katy is the author of two ASCD books: Managing Your Classroom with Heart and Everyday Engagement.

Katy loves to get ‘er done. Whatever project she is working on, she has bulldog focus and tenacity to complete the project with high quality, accuracy, and flair. An effective collaborator and project leader, she knows how to galvanize team members around an idea, implement a plan, and monitor the plan until the goals are reached.

She’s also the proud mom of three sons and the wife of her high school sweetheart, and they all love spending time on the beach with their two dogs, Leroy and Oakley. An avid reader and learner, Katy can always be found with a stack of books and an online class registration form.
