Personal Information
Katie is an energetic, outgoing, and organized person who feels right at home at the PPC. As academics come first, Katie tends to have her nose buried in her homework at the Coffee House when she isn’t at work. On the occasional instance she has some free time, she loves listening to a wide range of music & This American Life on NPR, collecting postcards, watching movies that make you think, reading David Sedaris memoirs, and engaging in anything intellectually stimulating and/or highly entertaining.
