Born and raised in Colorado, Kate grew up on snow.  After graduating from CU Boulder she headed west, spending three years in Mammoth Lakes, CA skiing Mammoth and climbing in Yosemite, and 13 years on the Pacific Coast in San Francisco. The pandemic brought her and her family home to Colorado and she now lives in Summit County with her husband and two young daughters. Kate is a fierce advocate of early childhood education and engaging our youth with the outdoors to build confidence and life skills. She is an active volunteer in the community and is an Intro to TBK Coach. As the liaison between the TBK Intro program and the Board, she works to make our families feel welcome, informed and supported and helps our athletes grow their skills and confidence!
