Major: Psychology
Minors: Honors, American Sign Language, and Early Childhood Education (and potentially working

Katie is a second-year student from Riverton, Wyoming. She is studying psychology
in hopes to become a school counselor. She loves to play clarinet and plays in the
Western Thunder Marching Band and UW Symphonic Band. In her free time, she enjoys
painting, reading, and scrapbooking.
Katie's favorite part about the Honors College is the interdisciplinary aspect. Many
intellectual conversations stem from the fact that everyone in class is studying something
different and can provide different perspectives.
