Hi, I’m Kathryn. It’s Nice To Meet You.
When I was growing up outside Washington, D.C., I dreamed of being a fashion designer. I spent many weekends visiting the city’s museums with my dad, which fostered my creativity and appreciation for the arts. When I received a sewing machine for Christmas in the third grade, I thought I was well on my way to New York Fashion Week.
I quickly discovered that I’m no seamstress. I thought I might pursue fashion merchandising instead, but my C grade average in my business classes at Georgetown University taught me otherwise. I ditched the business pursuit and settled into the one thing I’ve always been good at: writing.
As a two-time English major, a student journalist, and a professional content marketer and editor, I’ve not only learned to read and analyze stories, but to write them. I’ve seen the power of the written word to spark dialogue and transport the reader to new worlds. I want to be a part of that journey, using my writing to inspire and educate the world -
one story at a time.
7 things you might find cool (about me).
1. I wrote two theses in two years — one on Shakespeare & the #MeToo movement and one on mothers who lie to their children.
2. I post a monthly poetry round-up on my Instagram story (@kbakers).
3. I was supposed to be a Christmas baby, but I was born in October (sorry mom). Before you ask - I’m a Scorpio Sun, Virgo Moon, Capricorn Rising.
4. I’m a professional writer and content creator living in Baltimore, MD.
5. I received my B.A. and M.A. in English from Georgetown University in Washington, D.C.
6. I studied abroad in St. Andrews, Scotland.
7. I specialize in music reviews, trend reports, gift guides, interviews and pop culture analyses. Head to the side bar to read my work ;)
