Katy, a DC native, recently graduated from New York University with a B.S. in Media, Culture and Communication, and a minor in Spanish Language and Literature.  At NYU, her course work involved looking at the intersections of digital media, political persuasion, and cross-cultural communication in a changing global landscape.  It was through her studies at NYU that she became passionate about media reform, digital rights, and intellectual property.

Katy first began her work with PK as a lowly undergraduate intern in the summer of 2009, but now works with the media and outreach team, "translating" the issues into approachable language in order to inform, engage, and reach out to the general public through various media platforms.
