As the Director of the Dayton Regional Pathways HUB, Katie is responsible for the representation of the HUB model to internal and external audiences and leads its growth, sustainability, and advocacy/education. She is the main point of contact for the Care Coordination Agencies and their care coordinators to ensure at-risk children, adults, and families in Montgomery County have access to resources and the results are documented and measured.

2023 was a banner year for Katie, both personally and professionally. She was honored as one of the Dayton Business Journal’s “Forty Under Forty” in May. Rupert, the family cat, was awarded Best Pet Co-worker by the Dayton Daily News in July. And most exciting of all, Katie and her husband, Argen, welcomed their son in September 2023!
