Hello, I'm Catherine

Welcome to this space where I share my reflections, musings, and creative work.

I design learning experiences, explore how people grow through dialogue and practice, and experiment with technology along the way. I am curious, love exploring, and enjoy creating tools and systems that help people think, connect, and grow.

As a recovering perfectionist, this space acts as my personal challenge to "be a pro", post, and always keep progressing. I am (mostly) comfortable being uncomfortable and don't mind making mistakes. However, I do love running water and electricity and strive to make new mistakes rather than the same ones over and over.

The Current "Thing"

We all have "things" occupying our time, minds, and hearts in any given moment.
Here are a few of mine.

Project: Build a new website

It was killing me. I am using a GoDaddy template/hosting package and knew there was a better way. Thankfully I have nerd in my life who suggested that between HTML 5 templates and Claude AI, I could make my own site. Well, here we are.

Book: Hail Mary

About the same time I was starting the website project, I was in the middle of reading this book. Excellent! Truly a take you out of this world and put you in another kind of book. Needless to say, the website project slowed significantly.
