A certified Master Black Belt in Lean/Six Sigma quality improvement, she is also fluent in four languages, and has lived and worked across five continents. 

Katie learned management and leadership at GE – across healthcare, financial services, and technology industries. She has founded and supported non-profits and communities her whole life, and devoted the last 10 years to social and public service, most recently as Deputy Assistant Administrator for Global Health at the U.S. Agency for International Development. Her passion is to help mission-driven organizations make the world a better place—and to do so faster, better, smarter, and more creatively.
