I'm a Community Manager for the Stack Exchange Network (the site you're on).

I have a degree in Radio-TV-Film and used to work in the film industry, mostly doing casting. Before that, I was a voice major, so I know how to make myself heard in loud places.

The small creatures in my profile image are my sons, Bennett (big) and August (little), and my hippo... Hippo (he's the grey one).

I've attempted a fair number of crafts from jewelry making to crochet and I also love to bake and cook... but mostly bake.

It's pronounced "Ka-tya". She/Her.

As you might expect, my email starts with Catija and ends with stackexchange.com. If you have a good recipe for cake... or community building, please reach out.
