Personalities

Katie graduated Phi Beta Kappa and Cum Laude with her B.S. in Meteorology in August 2007 from The Florida State University. She joined the Weather World crew shortly thereafter and continues to work on her broadcast meteorology, forecasting skill, and her Master's thesis at Penn State, University Park.

Katie began her broadcast experience as one of the student meteorologists on the Florida State Weather Show, which airs weeknights in Tallahassee, FL. She then interned at WCTV in Tallahassee, FL for four months. Katie believes broadcasting is the best way to inform the public of upcoming, current weather and severe weather alerts. "I simply desire people to be properly aware of current weather situations and not in the way of danger," she explains.

Katie was born and raised in wild, wonderful West Virginia, where she immediately took to outdoor activities, including but not limited to skiing, caving and rock climbing. She enjoys speaking French, SCUBA diving in warmer climates, and her favorite pastime, performing in the circus.
