Katie has been a contributor for The Points Guy since November 2015. Since diving into the points and miles world in 2014, Katie and her husband JT have generated over 6 million miles/points and flown more than 596,000 miles. After Katie completed her PhD thesis in June 2017, they sold or donated most of their possessions, moved out of their Austin, TX apartment and transitioned to a "digital nomad" lifestyle — traveling the world while working and writing about their experiences. In March 2018 their cat, Grace, joined their journey.

Katie's articles range broadly since she often writes based on experiences from her travels. These articles include flight and hotel reviews, pet travel guides, credit card shopping and travel protection guides and eco-friendly travel guides.
