About
Katie joined KUOW's online team as an editor and reporter in 2024, after serving three years as senior producer of the local Morning Edition program. She has covered a variety of local topics, including Seattle politics, elections, and the arts. She's also co-hosts KUOW's weekly arts podcast, Meet Me Here, highlighting the local literary scene and visiting authors.
In 2024, Katie created the KUOW Book Club, featuring stories and authors from the Pacific Northwest. Katie's picks have included classics, like Timothy Egan's "The Good Rain," and more recent hits, like Sonora Jha's "The Laughter." At the end of each month's reading, Katie interviews the featured author, giving readers a chance to hear from some of the most talented writers in the region. All readers are invited to join the KUOW Book Club by signing up for the newsletter at kuow.org/books.
Katie is a graduate of the University of Florida College of Journalism, and in her spare time that isn't spent reading, she is a P-Patch gardener and an auntie.
