Kate Summerhill

Career Coach for Biology - BA and BS and Chemistry Majors

Kate is currently serving the College of Science as a Career Coach. She is a First Generation, University of North Texas Alumni who completed her Bachelor of Arts in Biology with Honors in the Spring of 2022. Kate has a strong desire to guide students in their professional and personal development. She excels in encouraging and motivating students to accept and love who they are due to her strong belief that success comes from being confident. Kate’s mission is to be a resource to young professionals of UNT, due to her background of being a young professional herself. She aims to help them see that they are extraordinary just as they are by helping them eliminate comparison and overcome other mental barriers.

“Being a young professional is hard, especially if they are First Generation because you are essentially traveling into a deep dark unknown. I want to shed some light, and bring some guidance to those students and help them become their best selves.

Current students and recent graduates (graduated one year ago or more recently) can schedule an online or in-person appointment through Navigate. Experienced Alumni (graduated more than one year ago) can check out the options available to connect with a Career Coach on the Alumni page.
