Biography

How can I prove I am not at fault for my motorcycle accident? Katie is a California native and has lived and worked in the Bay Area since 2010. Katie was born and raised in Rancho Cucamonga, California, in the Inland Empire, but has lived in the Bay Area since she graduated from high school in 2010. Katie loves the people, food, and scenery in the Bay Area and can’t imagine living anywhere else. Katie graduated from the University of California, Davis, with honors in 2020 with a bachelor’s degree in history. While at UC Davis, Katie helped start the UC Davis History Club. During the summer of 2019, Katie studied abroad through a UC Davis history program in Vienna, Austria. While in Austria, Katie traveled through Munich, Prague, Krakow, and Budapest. Afterward, she began her legal education at the University of California College of the Law, San Francisco (formerly UC Hastings) in 2021. While in law school, Katie was a member and coach of the highly ranked UC Law SF Moot Court team. Additionally, Katie was an Editor, and later Executive Editor of Articles, for the UC Law SF Journal of Race & Economic Justice. As a disabled person, Katie is passionate about disability rights and advocacy, which motivated her to work alongside other students to create the UC Law SF Disability Rights Association and serve as its inaugural president. Katie also worked as a teaching assistant for legal research and writing courses during her second and third years of law school. During her third year of law school, Katie participated in the Individual Representation clinic.
