Connecting the People of Montford Park

CHAIR
Consultant, LMI

Katherine moved to Montford Park in 2022 and began looking for ways to get involved in my local community, which is how she found Montford Park Partners. She has been on the Board for three years and was honored to be elected Chair. As a public health professional, she is passionate about improving her community for all our residents and businesses. Volunteering with MPP has been a great opportunity to meet with local business owners, community members, and city officials to identify ways to improve Montford Park. A fun fact about Katherine is that she is a native Charlottean, born and raised here in the QC! Her favorite thing about Montford Park is the walkability. “I love getting out and exploring the area, and I especially love having Little Sugar Creek Greenway stretching along the length of the neighborhood for walks, runs, and bike rides! Someday I hope to put on a Montford Park Fun Run along our section of the Greenway!”
