Dr. Katie Engels

Katie Engels seeks to be a passionate student of life. Adventures in learning have been rooted in love of understanding people and places through the lens of music. A Bachelors of Music degree in Music Composition, a Masters of Business Administration degree, and the Doctorate in Learning and Leadership have allowed a variety of knowledge bases to inform and encourage a continual desire to learn, grow, and understand.

Engels has directed the United States operations for the Royals Society of the Arts, had an extensive career with the Chattanooga Symphony & Opera, and taught nonprofit management courses in the Department of Political Science, Public Administration & Nonprofit Management at the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga. She loves Jesus, her husband, and her family and is excited about the gift of each day to love more, learn more, and journey through this amazing life.
