Hi! I’m Katie.

I write books and plays for and about my favorite demographic of people: teenagers.

I spent my own teen years in Berkeley, California, an ultra-liberal college town where adolescent rebellion takes the form of eating refined sugars or voting Republican. I moved to New York City for college and decided to stay for a while, even though the avocados there frequently disappointed me. I now live in San Diego, on a little island which is best described as “Mayberry with a beach.”

My interests include feminist theology, medieval history, and overthinking absolutely everything.
