Hi, I’m Katherine!

Katherine spent her 20s, living paycheck-to-paycheck in London, bickering with her super frugal husband over money. A care-free spender at heart, she traveled the world, obtained her masters degree, and summited Mt. Kilimanjaro, all while carrying the weight of student loans on her back. When she and her husband relocated to NYC (newly pregnant), they realized they needed to get their sh%t together and get on the same page now that there would be a tiny human to raise. With nowhere to turn, and no real savings, they discovered the world of personal finance. Katherine paid off over $40k in student loans, had 3 months’ worth of expenses in an emergency fund, and was maxing out her 401k, all by the time she welcomed her daughter into the world. Despite this huge financial success, Katherine felt like there were not enough people who had similar lived experiences talking about money in authentic ways. The realization of living debt-free, coupled with concepts like compound interest and how to resist spending on things that do not align with your values, became Katherine’s passion and she loves to put it out in the world. Katherine has since relocated to the suburbs of Boston where she dons many hats: wife, mom of three sweet kiddos, and Director…all while doing her best to live in the present.
