Kaitlin Louise Palmer
Kaitlin grew up in the Black Hills with a natural love for the outdoors, a good cup of tea, and traveling as much as possible! After developing a taste for culture, food, and new experiences while traveling as a young child, she has enjoyed exploring the United States and various areas of the world to meet new people and enjoy the delicious food they create! Kaitlin's first international education experience brought her to Florence, Italy where she spent a semester in 2013 exploring the Tuscan hillsides by bicycle. She graduated as a University Honors Scholar with a Bachelor degree of Science in Psychology from Black Hills State University in 2014 and a Masters degree of Education in Administration of Student Affairs from South Dakota State University in 2019. She has enjoyed serving BHSU students since 2015 and attributes her love for education to her Alma mater, Black Hills State University. In her free time, she loves cooking, eating, playing Legos, painting, camping, biking, kayaking, skiing, and hiking with her husband, Woodrow. She also enjoys the company of her dog, Molly, two cats, Charlie and Beans, and her many houseplants! To connect with Kaitlin, you can email her at kaitlin.palmer@BHSU.edu or call 605-642-6942.
