Hello! My name is Kate Martinez. I initially began college as a finance and accounting major, but after volunteering in the Florida elementary schools while completing my Disney College Program, I found that my true passion is teaching. I graduated from the University of Wisconsin - Whitewater with a bachelor's degree in Elementary Education and a minor in Spanish in December 2019. This will be my second year here at Concordia Lutheran School. I am very blessed and excited to continue to openly share my faith with the students as they grow and learn in the Word of God as well as develop a great understanding of the world around them. The Lutheran Church and Christian education has been a large part of my life since the minute I was born and I am excited for it to continue to be as I work here at Concordia. I recently married my husband, Martin, and moved to the Racine area. In our free time we love to go exploring and enjoy the beautiful world God has created by hiking and kayaking. If I'm not outdoors, you will either find me curled up with a good book or whipping up treats in the kitchen.
