IN 2018 Katie started a Clothes Closet that is focused on making sure high school students have professional wear as they begin their first job, internship, etc. Any students can shop the closet for free and take whatever they need.

Katie has two children that are the center of her world. A 19-year-old son, Gage, and an 18-year-old daughter Sage. Both are currently in college pursuing their educational goals. They are constantly keeping her centered and reminding her of what is really the most important part of her life…..family.
