About Katie Kovalchik
I am a licensed landscape architect and project manager dedicated to implementing high-impact and sustainable assets in Western Pennsylvania communities and landscapes. With a career spanning private practice leadership and non-profit activation work, I specialize in translating ambitious conservation and multimodal goals into reality. My experience covers a wide range of scales - from public parks and urban plazas to large-scale greenways and trail planning. I have led projects through every stage of the lifecycle, from initial conceptual design to the granular details of implementation, fundraising and construction. Whether revitalizing rural economies through outdoor recreation or implementing parks and trails in riverfront communities like Etna Riverfront Park, my work is defined by a commitment to connectivity, ecological stewardship, and the vibrant life of public spaces. I am experienced in advancing complex projects alongside stakeholder engagement—partnering with government entities, municipal leaders, and communities to advance grant-funded initiatives that stick and I work to ensure the long-term health and accessibility of the communities and rivers that define our region.
