Hi, I’m Kate!

I believe in empathy over apathy, showing up for others even when it’s hard (especially when it’s hard), and loving my children unconditionally. I am a dancer, a list maker, and a chocolate chip cookie enthusiast. I send random .gifs without context and make the best apple pie ever. I am unapologetically joyful, self effacing, and clumsy. I also happen to have cancer.

“The world is not respectable; it is mortal, tormented, confused, deluded forever; but it is shot through with beauty, with love, with glints of courage and laughter; and in these, the spirit blooms.”

— George Santayana
