Katie Wallace, B.Ed. (Environmental Education Specialization)
My passion for outdoor education began at summer camp; I fell in love with the chaos of canoe trips, the ridiculous inside jokes, and weirdly deep conversations with people I just met. As someone who grew up neurodiverse, these moments were more than just memories- they taught me confidence, resilience, and connection in a way I had never felt in the classroom. These days, I tend to live just outside of my comfort zone, whether that’s dipping in frozen lakes, singing for crowds, or flipping upside-down to top out my latest climbing project.
Through my undergraduate studies in Psychology, along with my experience supporting youth in both clinical and educational settings, I’ve learned that meaningful growth happens when we challenge ourselves to engage with new environments and perspectives. In turn, I am committed to creating spaces where people feel safe not only to embrace who they are, but to explore who they can become.
