Hi! I’m Katherine.
I’m originally from North Carolina but now reside in Northwest Arkansas, where I recreate, work, and explore nature. Currently, I hold the position of Assistant Director of UREC Outdoors at the University of Arkansas. I work with college students to expose them to the outdoors and take them to some incredible places like: the Grand Canyon, Big Bend, or the Boundary Waters.
During my free time, I assist individuals, like yourself, in acquiring wilderness medicine skills and discovering their preferred outdoor destinations. Being an enthusiastic outdoorswoman, I make the most of every opportunity to be out paddling, climbing, hiking, or riding my gravel bike.
Here’s some of my current certifications:
WMTC Wilderness Medicine Instructor
Wilderness EMT
Leave No Trace Level 2 Instructor - previously LNT Master Educator
ACA L4 Swiftwater Rescue
PCIA Climbing Wall Instructor - Lead
My Education:
M.Ed. Recreation and Sport Management, University of Arkansas
B.S. Crop and Soil Science, NC State University
