Katie is a new Summer River Ranger this year with SPREE! She was born in New York where she would use the subway as her main form of transportation to get around the city. Katie also lived in Italy for a year where she learned to speak Italian and developed a love for the homemade pasta that her host family would make. She is fluent in both English and Italian, and hopes to become fluent in 3 more languages throughout her life. Katie enjoys being outside and taking risks to make things happen! She is passionate about teaching kids foreign languages in order to increase their compassion for and awareness of other cultures. That is also why in the future, she would like to work somewhere where she can learn about other people’s stories and cultures. The one thing Katie is most proud of is having written and published her own book, “Mission el4”! Go check it out on Amazon!
