Meet the Instructor: Doug Bowen-Bailey

As an instructional designer for the Graduation to Certification program, Doug seeks innovative ways to support recent graduates on their journey to becoming practicing professionals. He has collaborated on many CATIE projects in the past, creating video and online resources, and is excited to now be on staff with the CATIE Center. In addition to working with the CATIE Center, he interprets in the community when he can, provides mentoring services, serves on the executive board of the Duluth Branch of the NAACP, and is a co-facilitator for Race Awareness Workshops with the Family Freedom Center. He received his MA in Interpreting Studies and Communication Equity in 2019 from St. Catherine University with a project focused on understanding best practices for teaching interpreters about power, privilege and oppression.

Doug lives in Duluth, MN with his partner, Holly.  His best thinking often happens while he is on a bicycle, and so is grateful for any chance to be out on the roads and trails on two wheels.
