My name is Katie. I'm a 24 year old traveler, cheesemonger, and general enthusiast of life. I graduated with my Bachelor's degree in Political Science and Women's, Gender, and Sexuality Studies in 2014. After a brief stint in grad school, I knew that working in policy was not for me, and went back to doing what I love- working in food and agriculture. This past January, I finished a year long apprenticeship at a fruit farm and winery in Connecticut, and have now begun learning all there is to know about artisanal cheese. Where's life leading me next? We shall see :)

Algo increíble que he hecho

I worked on a dairy farm. I milked cows and made lots of tasty dairy treats. It made me realize that I would like to have my own homestead someday.
