Katie oversees all of the career development and employer relations activities for the Department of Economics. While she has been with the department for the last three years, she has been in working in career services for the last 20 years with the majority of that time being spent on the Illinois campus. In addition to meeting with students and employers, Katie facilitates both the ECON 198 (Economics at Illinois) and ECON 298 (Internships) courses for Economics students. Katie has a true passion for career services and is always looking for new and innovative ways to assist students in taking those next steps with experiences outside of the classroom.
