About Me

Hi there, I’m Catherine! I am a quirky young woman just trying to find my way through this wonderful life, finding joy along the way. Though dealt a difficult hand at age 20 when diagnosed with Relapsing Remitting Multiple Sclerosis (RRMS), the last decade has taught me more about the trials and tribulations that are a part of a beautifully well-rounded life. Maintaining a positive (though very realistic) outlook isn’t always easy, but my hope is that sharing my experiences in dealing with the complications MS presents every day will help someone else in their own personal journey.

When I’m not advocating for other warriors or sharing my experiences, I love to spend my time dabbling in an array of hobbies, usually with my family by my side. You can find me exploring Richmond trails and Shenandoah mountains with my husband, Doug, and our 2 pups Splash and Puddles or chasing live music and sipping a good craft beer. Along with this, you can also find me replaying the Legend of Zelda for the 294,483,947th time, painting, or lifting in the gym.
