When Katie’s collegiate career came to an end with her graduation from UT in 2019 with a major in Kinesiology and a bachelor’s degree in Science in Education, her goal was to help other girls with the same dreams and aspirations further their softball careers and reach their fullest potential. She began her coaching career with the Gold Coast Hurricanes, a distinguished travel softball organization originating from the state of Florida. She coached a travel softball team through the organization, and gave private instruction addressing hitting, catching, fielding, and mental game tactics.

After concluding her education at Tennessee Wesleyan University with her master’s degree in Occupational Therapy in 2022, she continued her coaching career at BC Athletics in Knoxville, TN. The owner and founder of BCA, former MLB player Brett Carroll, trusted Katie in continuing the growth of the softball program within the organization by giving private instruction and beginning a travel softball team.

Come 2023, Katie moved back home to WNY aspiring to take her coaching skills to the collegiate level. She became an assistant coach at Canisius University for the 2023-2024 season.
