Katie Verderber, Paralympic wheelchair curler and attorney at Silverman Law Office, named YWCA Helena Woman of the Year.
The honor was announced April 15 at the YWCA’s “Empowered” event at The Myrna Loy in Helena. The award recognizes women who demonstrate a commitment to the Greater Helena region, lead with compassion and work to remove barriers for others.
Verderber was raised in Valier, Montana and went on to serve in the U.S. Army Judge Advocate General Corps, where she provided legal counsel to military commanders in support of overseas operations.
While deployed to Afghanistan in 2019, Verderber sustained a spinal cord injury that resulted in paralysis. After medically retiring from the military, she returned to Montana and took up adaptive sports, eventually becoming one of five athletes selected to represent Team USA in wheelchair curling at the 2026 Winter Paralympic Games in Cortina d’Ampezzo, Italy.
Through her involvement with the Last Chance Curling Club in Helena, she has helped introduce community members to curling, including adaptive curling opportunities that make the sport accessible to people of all abilities.
Verder practices law in Helena as an attorney with Silverman Law Office, focusing on business, contract, real estate and probate litigation.
“In every chapter of her life, Katie turns obstacles into opportunities and inspires others to pursue possibilities they may not have thought possible,” her nomination for the award reads.
