Katherine began writing while working on commercial fishing vessels. She serves as the 2025-2027 Phippsburg, Maine Island Institute Fellow and continues to write about fisheries.

Her writing examines the ecological, cultural and economic gaps—minute and infinite—between producer, produced and consumer. Various research and writing has been supported by fellowships from Fulbright Canada and the Folger Shakespeare Library. She is published with Conjunctions, Missouri Review, Raritan, Short Édition and Post Road. Her MFA in fiction is from the University of Virginia and most of the rest of her education is from boats and people.

She is a worried, somewhat hermetic nerd of marine economies.
