Katie’s creative practice is located at the intersection of climate justice, health and the Arts with a proven passion for designing better ways for planet and communities.
Katie has a background in palliative care nursing, regenerative farming and permaculture and now works part time as a freelance artist, facilitator and small scale events producer, while living with chronic illness. The wisdom from these diverse yet connected life experiences form the stories of her hand drawn illustrations.
