About your host
As the creator behind @NolaNeighborhoodCats, I am passionate about all things cats! I love educating people about cats but also celebrating our feline friends through photography, art and any other ways possible. I have connected with fellow cat activists, lovers and artists around the country through events like CatCon in Los Angeles and through my connections with Nola Neighborhood Cats. I am originally from Minnesota but have called New Orleans home for almost 15 years. I have a passion for traveling, food and also design as I have my Masters in Architecture and am a licensed interior designer with a focus in hospitality design. I have been to twenty countries and twenty eight states!
