Hi, I’m Kate — a third-year UCLA Pathway student from Danville, CA, a small town in the San Francisco Bay Area. I’m on track to complete both my Pathway and Early Childhood Education Certificates in June 2026, and I’m excited to be interning with Level Up Solutions.

I grew up in Danville with my parents, my older brother Jack, and our two doodles, Henry and Murphy. I enjoy spending time with friends and family, and I have a love for kids, seniors, animals, good food, music, shopping, the SF Giants, Disney, and a good challenge—especially puzzles. Being part of the UCLA Pathway Program has introduced me to some incredible people, and I’m very grateful for the friendships I’ve built along the way.

One of my biggest goals is to become a 1:1 aide for a young neurodivergent student—something that’s especially meaningful to me because I can personally relate. I’m looking forward to supporting social event efforts at Level Up, and after graduation, I’m excited to settle into Westwood Village and see what this next chapter holds.
