Art speaks when words fall short. For me, creating art is a way to process the world, appreciate beauty, pain, wonder, and everything in between.

I find vulnerability in creativity. Each piece I share evokes a moment of feeling seen and understood. A time where I chose strength. Each piece carries a part of me— and then becomes part of someone else’s story.

Katherine works with women to help them unlock their inner strength and step into their power with clarity and purpose. Through personalized coaching and her experience in various leadership positions, Katherine is dedicated to helping women transform their mindset in both their personal and professional lives.

Seeing the need for more inclusive mental health resources, especially for teens, Katherine decided to take her ideas to the next level and write her first book The Ultimate Life Skills Guide For Teens.
