There are a few things that make Katherine tick: think pet-friendly pubs, Ferrari Formula 1 victories and bike rides with her white floofball of a Maltese dog, Pickle (yep, Pickle goes in a backpack. It’s unconventional, but trust us, she loves feeling the wind in her fur).
Before turning her hand to freelancing, Katherine was Editor of Australian entertainment title WHO, and she is a former Managing Editor of Lifestyle, Entertainment and Commercial for 7NEWS.com.au. Originally from the UK, she has more than two decades of experience working with high profile publications in Sydney and London and she really, really loves crafting headlines that make you want to read more.
When she’s not searching for her next story, exploring the city on two wheels or sipping on a Pinot Grigio in a dog-friendly beer garden, you’ll likely find her planning her next adventure, given she’s something of an ace at finding the perfect Airbnb.
