She was the recipient of the Charles Hovey Pepper Prize for her body of work featured in the 2016 Senior Capstone Exhibition. She went on to receive her Masters in Teaching at the Tufts School of the Museum of Fine Arts in May 2018.

Over 250 of her original works are in private and public collections in 50+ cities across the nation and abroad, including New York City, Miami, LA, Canada, and more. Her first solo show "Colorjoy" in November 2021 attracted over 300 people to Opening Night, where 10 pieces sold in total, and 10% was donated to suicide prevention organizations. Katie’s work has been featured in international, local, and fine art publications including Vanity Fair, Vogue, Colby Magazine, and Create! Magazine. At this point in her career, Katie is completely independent and shows her work online, in exhibitions, out of her studio, and in art fairs across the country.
