About Katie
Biography
I have professionally handled nearly two thousand legal matters in numerous practice areas to include military law, business law, family law, juvenile law, civil litigation, and mediation. Prior to practicing law, I served on active duty in the United States Army as a Military Intelligence Officer.
I am currently a Colonel in the Army Reserve, serving as a Deputy Chief of Staff G2 of the 108th Training Command (IET) in Charlotte, North Carolina.
I received her B.A. at Santa Clara University, a J.D. at the University of Denver Sturm College of Law, and a Master of Strategic Studies from the United States Army War College. I have over 150 hours of continuing legal education in family law, business law, mediation, negotiations, legislation, and ethics.
My military education includes Command and General Staff College, Army Advance Operations Course, Pre-Command Course, Military Intelligence Career Courses, and the Strategic Intelligence Course.
I volunteer with Metro Volunteer Lawyers and Colorado Lawyers for Colorado Veterans. I also participates in the annual "Veterans Stand-down" in conjunction with the Colorado National Guard and volunteer my time with the Colorado Veterans Project.
I am married with four children and love to spend time with family and friends and take advantage of the Colorado outdoors!
