Katherine’s passion for animals started with her childhood pets and only grew as she joined the National FFA organization and agriculture classes in high school. She is passionate about being able to be a voice for the creatures who are unable to speak for themselves and credits her ability to advocate for the animals as one of the best parts of her career.
Katherine joined BOPH in March of 2024 as our Lead LVMT, she was drawn here due to the overall culture and low-stress environment we uphold and promote every day. She was excited about joining such an amazing team and being able to assist the nursing team in any way she can and be apart of the larger mission of the hospital.
