Hello, I’m Kate.
This business has been a lifelong dream of mine. I am a total nerd who enjoys reading and researching human health and wellness. I have the education to back my passion. I have three degrees: A bachelor’s degree in psychology and development with a strong emphasis on education, as well as both an associates and bachelors degree in Nursing. I completed a Critical Care Nurse Residency program at UVM Medical Center. I am certified in many areas including Instructing CPR and providing life saving procedures to all ages. My career has included time as a teacher, nanny, and nurse among many other jobs. I have extensive training and experience in emergency and critical care medicine, sedation, pre and post surgical care, outpatient clinic care, and
research.
Through my life experiences, spanning all across the world, I have come to learn a great deal and discover things which intrigued me. One of the biggest things that I have come to learn is how little Americans are taught about their own bodies and livelihood.
Given the fast paced and overrun healthcare system, very few healthcare workers have the time to educate or support their patients. My job started to feel like I was part of a factory line versus caring for human beings, which is what pushed me to make my long term dream into a wellness practice.
I am also passionate about my own health and wellness. I played a few sports growing up and later on in life, I researched and trained to successfully complete 44 half marathons! I have shared this passion by training friends and my husband how to run long distances and complete half marathons, and my best friend is now faster than I am! I also love trail running, hiking, paddle boarding, kayaking or almost anything on the water, and these days I enjoy any way of getting outside with my daughter. I had a complicated pregnancy, but she never spent a second in critical care and was a perfectly healthy infant despite being delivered prematurely (the doctors said she was healthier than many full term babies!). She also had colic as a newborn and my husband and I are raising her during this pandemic!
