Share with us a short bio of yourself.

Hello - my name is Katie. I recently left a stable event management career in corporate America in search of fulfillment and purpose, and to make a meaningful difference -- to change the world of mental health. I am currently in graduate school and will earn my Master's Degree in Social Work (MSW) when I graduate in May 2020. My vision, which I'm starting to execute against, is to build a team of experts to curate, develop and implement a mandatory school-based mental health curriculum for grades K-12, nationwide. The Vision: Developing future generations of healthy humans toward a sustainable model that organically regenerates waves of healthy humans -- forever. Why now? To build future competencies for future generations… to save lives.
