Kaite draws on a deep well of empathy and understanding. She has a wonderful way with words, a creative and impish way of explaining, bringing in humor without degrading from the subject. Kaite is centered and grounded, and has the knack of really “seeing“ people, and saying what is needed in the moment. Katie is a strong and shining superstar. Thank you, Kaite.
