  • Katie was born in 2003 on a military base in North Carolina, moved to Alaska, and then grew up in Augusta, Georgia. She is obsessed with all things penguins, anthropology, and the weather channel. Katie studied biology, museum practices, atmospheric sciences, and psychology. She grew up in a military family, and quickly grew a passion for public service and data visualization. She has always been the babysitter and nanny of her large family. In 2024, her family was exposed to the life of adoption, pushing her work to be more adoption, child, and birth focused. Now, Katie is making an effort to support public service through her works, whether it be disaster relief, nutrition education, adoption education, photography for parents grieving loss, or museum based works.
