ElfieElfie, aka Kate McDermott, is very excited to join the North Pole crew this year and add to the festive, holiday cheer for all! Kate’s background includes a bachelors degree in Elementary Education from the University of Illinois, experience as a classroom teacher, outdoor adventure camp counselor and in recent years has redefined herself in other ways.
Kate is currently serving as the President on the Oak Lawn Public Library Board as well as the Vice President of the Illinois Developmental Therapy Association. She fills her weeks working as an in-home Developmental Therapist for children and families in the Early Intervention Program. She can also be found at the Children’s Museum in Oak Lawn every Wednesday at the Wee Ones program talking to parents and caregivers about child development. Having fun and learning through play has been a constant in her life and also happens to be quite a perk when becoming Elfie!! |
