Bio

My name is Katie Coil, and I’m originally from northern Michigan. After 11 years of service in the U.S. Air Force, I’m now pursuing my second graduate degree—this time in Mental Health Counseling, after previously earning a Master’s in Business. I’m deeply passionate about promoting mental health and overall wellness, and my long-term goal is to open a private practice focused on helping others thrive in every aspect of their lives. I currently live in Utah but will soon be returning to Michigan to begin the next chapter of this journey. I’m a driven, purpose-focused individual who sets goals and follows through with intention and discipline. Receiving scholarship aid would greatly ease the financial burden of my education and allow me to focus more fully on serving others through my future work.
