She is the owner of Camp Equinox, a theatre day camp in Montana that serves 300 families every summer and where she has taught and trained staff in leading creative workshops since 1996.

More recently, Katie has become a certified Interior Designer, an abstract expressionist painter, and is a glass fusing artist, all adding to her interest in the fine arts.

On the life-coaching-experience side, Katie has studied or worked with 3 major spiritual leaders including Thich Nhat Hahn, Cheri Huber and Martha Beck, and is a practicing Buddhist within the O.I. community of Thich Nhat Hahn. Her Kripalu yoga training also informs her values and strengths as a life-coach and teacher.

The Certification Program is the result of a life of creativity and teaching.
