Hello! I am an editor and writer based in Washington, DC.

A colleague, frustrated that she could not easily summarize my skill-set, once blurted out, “Katie, you're a human Swiss-Army knife! You can do anything that needs to be done.”

I am interested in international security, foreign policy, Central Asia, Afghanistan, civil-military affairs, satire, jazz, prog, public transportation, urban life, personal narratives, storytelling, myths & national epics, photography, social media & engagement strategies... and so much more.
