Bio
Kacy (Katherine) Hughes
I supervised Julie as an Americorps Fellow for one year and then hired her to be our Countdown to Kindergarten Educator. She's a gifted educator who is confident working with children and adults. In addition to working with the families in an exhibit she made creative contributions to a variety of projects at the Museum and was able to successfully manage multiple programs. Her experience in an informal museum setting and a formal school setting makes her an ideal candidate for a variety of positions in the education field.
