REVIEWS FROM MY CLIENTS
“Katie is a true humanist in every sense of the word. Often we neglect those who suffer at the far ends of the Earth because we don’t encounter them day-to-day. Katie is not only involved in global humanitarian efforts but is able to transfer that understanding and sense of obligation to the people she speaks to.”
-Chris Ward, Audience
“She did an awesome job sharing with our students her energy, passion, and heart at Cherry Creek High School’s Global Awareness Day. She did such a great job inspiring them to care about our world. And I loved that she talked with them not only about Global Orphan Prevention but also about who they are and the role they can play in serving this world in a positive way.”
