“Katie facilitated a tea workshop during a virtual team summit attended by employees working from home in London, New York & Seattle. It was a great break from the flow of technical talks, and we all learnt something about tea! Everything went smoothly from shipping our sample tea and chocolate boxes internationally, to preparing for the day, and the event itself.”

“Katie’s lively and magnetic energy provided an incredible experience for young women who are navigating new chapters in their lives as first year university students. Her knowledge, nature, and expertise drew myself and the students I work with in for an incredible night of learning, discussion, and ultimately, a chance to take a breather! A student asked for her contact information after the event so that she could personally thank Katie for sharing her passion with us and making it one of our new found passions. I would recommend this experience to anyone 10 times over!”

“Katie created a custom program for our team, and she brought a wealth of knowledge, passion, and connection to our two events. Virtual engagement events can be a tough sell during the pandemic, as so many of us feel Zoom fatigue. However, Katie's approach was a breath of fresh air and gave us all the opportunity to step back, experience something together as a team, and enjoy each other's company -- despite being remote. Thank you for sharing your time with us!”
