She works at Deloitte Consulting implementing strategic transformation for federal agencies, notably rolling out improvements to the sexual assault/harassment process within the military space. Living with ADHD and losing her vision as a young adult have helped Kathryn to grow in adaptability, flexibility, and empathy. As the coordinator of Virginia’s employment readiness program for blind youth (ages fourteen to twenty-one), and treasurer of BLIND, Inc., she has a deep passion for optimizing the lived experiences of those around her as individuals reach their full potential. Kathryn prioritizes advocacy for others, leading with her heart, and living with purpose above all else. </span></p><p class="p2" style="margin: 0px; font-stretch: normal; font-size: medium; line-height: normal;
