After graduation, she moved to Texas and served for one year as an Americorps member working in K-12 schools in Austin, which strengthened her love of working with students. She has also worked as a farm and garden manager, and at various summer camps. In her free time, Katie loves to go camping, bake, and play guitar.

Hedvika Tichá
Resident Director
Originally from a small town in the Czech Republic, Hedvika has been living abroad since 2008. She studied the Humanities in Prague and graduated from the Complutense University of Madrid with a MA in Spanish language and literature. Her passion for Hispanic culture led her to travel throughout South America and all over Spain. After the academic year at Humboldt University, she found her home in Berlin, as no other city could better feed her curiosity and eclectic interests ranging from yoga to Argentine tango. Hedvika loves to show ISA students hidden gems and encourage their own inner and outer exploration. Her enthusiasm for people and places is highly contagious.
