Hi! I’m Kathleen. I am a “word person.”

I’m a storyteller, writer, editor, and public speaker.


In 2019, I completed my Publishing diploma at Langara College, which strengthened my content creation skills and gave me a solid foundation in the Adobe Creative Suite. During the program, I was an Editorial Assistant for Langara’s Alumni & Community Engagement department, as well as Managing Editor/Online Editor for Pacific Rim Magazine.

Since then, I’ve worked for Geist Magazine and Central 1. I recently moved into the role of Content Specialist at Anxiety Canada where I create content for our website, social media, and other marketing & development collateral. Learn more about Anxiety Canada here and see my LinkedIn here.
