Katie

Katie moved to DC in 2007, and has since embarked upon a love affair with the city. She's an education reform advocate and communications professional during the day; at night and on the weekends, she's an owner here at We Love DC. Katie has high goals to eat herself through the entire city, with only her running shoes to save her from herself. For up-to-the-minute news and reviews (among other musings), follow her on Twitter!
