MY PHILOSOPHY“The question driving all of my creative work at this current social and political moment is:
How will we find our way back to one another?”

WHAT CLIENTS ARE SAYING
“Catherine is brilliant, creative, and a powerful gift for those looking to deepen their understanding of race and identity in the U.S. She’s a multi-talented and dynamic woman. As an educator and facilitator, she’s profoundly engaging. Her ability to help people connect the dots between their own awareness and experiences and the broader society have led her to be a powerful force of our time.”
“Catherine did SUCH an amazing job as our facilitator. She made for such a safe environment that I think our entire cohort felt comfortable being vulnerable. She also allowed us to take the conversations in whatever direction felt most natural, while also effortlessly tying it all back to what we were learning.”
“Catherine is awesome! She brings a strong sense of compassion and understanding that’s disarming and comforting at the same time.”
“Catherine and [her filmmaking partner] André led these sessions in a way that allowed attendees to work through their own strengths and weaknesses in addressing these issues while making them feel empowered to help others do the same.”
CLIENTS INCLUDE
Our Latest Project
Americans are feeling more hopeless and helpless than ever. We're disconnected and lonely. We argue with strangers online while cutting off contact with family members and friends in real life. At the same time, we're overwhelmed by massive challenges — recession, crime, war, immigration, climate change, and more. The problems feel too big, the country too divided, leaving so many of us wondering: What are we to do?
Social scientists, health experts, and activists alike have an answer: Find Purpose + Take Action + Do It In Community.
Across the country, people are doing exactly this. Whether they're setting up food delivery networks to ensure schoolchildren don't go hungry, organizing medical transportation services for veterans and the elderly, or forming bipartisan coalitions to prevent community violence, American citizens are finding a way to transcend social identity and political ideology to show up for one another in meaningful ways.
Good People will tell their stories.
