We know you’re covering details most people never even think about. The lettuce salad. And the registration table. And the table skirts. And you do it well. And now, you need to find just the right person to deliver a powerful message. A proven speaker with experience and insight. Who can relate to your audience, and engage them, and inspire them. And take some of the pressure off you. Plus, you’d appreciate someone who will be easy to work with. And you appreciate all the extra things. Someone invested off the stage too. Someone who will stay and chat. Someone who really cares about people, and will understand why your event is special.
Hello Meeting Planner!
My successful business runs on two things:
intuition and hard work.
Someone who researches your purpose, puts heart into a provoking message, and makes a connection with your attendees. That is my focus, my delight. And just the thought of that powerful engagement, the energy exchange… gives me chills.
I'm Katie
And I believe you deserve a speaker who is passionate about your event.
Just a hunch…
… we’re after the same thing
Working to bring your audience chills.
To draw people in. And add a dynamic energy. So it feels good at the end of the day. We can rest knowing we did our work. And we did it well.
Whether global corporate events, agriculture audiences, healthcare, women or men… my heart is driven to impact. To make a difference. To deliver a powerful, meaningful, effective message. Professionally engaging, personally relating.
Thank you for stopping by.

Identified as one of the Top 40 under 40 business leaders in the Midwest, The Business Watch magazine recognized Katie for professional development, community contributions, and her influential voice. The Federal Reserve Bank of Minneapolis relied on her reports to advise their agriculture decision makers. The Great American Wheat Harvest captured this North Dakota farm girl in its award-winning documentary. Katie loves tractors and work boots, yet as a guest at the National Ag Day in Washington, D.C., and a Finalist for Farm and Ranch Guide Country Woman of the Year, she was comfortable with the red carpet, high heels, and invigorating conversations with others who love life.
