Katherine’s eye for detail and fearlessness to go the extra mile allows her to take each event she touches to the next level. “We focus on the details of the event from the moment your first guest walks in until the last guest departs. As each layer of the event evolves, we want to consider the guest experience the entire time.” Katherine is a member of the Junior League of Dallas, and formerly served on the Alumna Committee of the Hockaday School. She is a past chair of the DMA Junior Associates and past member of the Forum at the Dallas Museum of Art. Katherine and her husband, Ken, enjoy spending time off at the lake with their son, Bowden and black lab, Bear.
