Meet with your College & Career Transition Counselor!
As your College & Career Transition Counselor (CCTC), I’m here to support you and your family throughout high school and as you prepare for life after graduation. This includes exploring careers, applying to college or apprenticeships, and preparing you for employment.
As a CCTC, each week you'll find me at your high school campus so I can provide one‑on‑one guidance tailored to your post‑secondary goals.
Get to Know Me & What I Do !!
Hi, I’m Katerina Walk, the College & Career Transition Counselor at NIACC. I love helping students explore opportunities, set goals, and find the right path after high school—whether that’s college, career, or something in between. My background in teaching and student support helps me connect with students where they are and guide them toward success. When I’m not at NIACC, you can usually find me cheering on my kids at their activities or coaching.
