About Katelyn

I grew up in a near-by suburb of Chicago, Illinois. I graduated from Illinois State University with a degree in Human Development and Family Science with an emphasis in Child Development and a minor in Spanish. During my senior year of college, I had internships at Illinois State University Preschool and Children's Home + Aid. I also lived and studied in Cusco, Peru. I have previously taught at an international school in downtown Chicago from 2017-2021. I am a National Geographic Certified Educator. I moved to Colorado to follow my love of fresh air and nature. I started teaching at Academy 360 in February, 2022. I have taught preschool, kindergarten, first grade, and second grade. In my free time, I enjoy hiking, camping, paddle boarding, posting up in my hammock with a book, and spending time with my cat, Louie.
