Kathy Cobb is a Growing Readers Design Team Specialist at North Georgia RESA, hailing from Ellijay, GA. With a rich background in education, Kathy dedicated 22 years to elementary teaching, including 17 years in 1st grade and 5 years in kindergarten.

Kathy’s role involves providing professional learning and onsite coaching to empower K-5 teachers in enhancing their reading instruction.
Before discovering her true calling in education, Kathy explored various paths including selling advertising for a country music radio station, managing a retail baby store, and working as a flight attendant based in New York City. Now fully immersed in her career, Kathy finds joy in her pursuits outside of work, including learning to play the cello, crafting pottery, and maintaining honeybee colonies.
So much to learn.
