Katie brings extensive pool operating, scheduling and teaching experience to the team. She has more than twelve years of experience in managing country club pools around the Omaha area. In addition, Katie has been teaching swim lessons for 20 years, so not only does she know pools, she knows kids. She has managed child care facilities for 18 years and loves being around little people who absorb so much and thrive on positive interaction… with a mix of silliness.
“It’s so exciting to be on the ground floor of this beautiful new facility, which has the potential of taking young children into a lifelong love of the water!” she says. Married to Steve for 30 years, Katie is the Mom of three grown children: Seth, Mark Colin and Hannah.
The title she is most proud of is “Grammie” (ask Katie for more details about Finnegan, the world's cutest swimmer), although she is also pretty thrilled that DiVentures was recently voted Best of Omaha 2012 Swim Lessons.
Since beginning a new career with Diventures, job responsibilities have recently doubled, as Katie oversees our aquatics program in Springfield, Missouri and trains all new staff. Also a certified scuba diver, Katie's favorite place to dive is Ambergris Caye in Belize and she is always looking forward to her next dive trip.
