Joined Atlas Obscura in 2021

Katie is a Georgia native now living in New Mexico, where it really is "the Land of Enchantment." Hiking through canyons, exploring ghost towns, stargazing, and eating plates of chile-smothered food is all part of a normal weekend. While Katie is fascinated by dark history, the paranormal, and cults, she also enjoys tea time, cat snuggles, and classic literature.
