Katie is a Comparative Theology student focusing on Hinduism and Christianity. Her semester in Bangalore, India, through the University of Florida, inspired her to change majors from Finance to Religious Studies and to begin studying Comparative Theology during her MTS degree. Prior to joining the Theology Department, Katie was a Campus Minister and Spanish Teacher at Saint John’s High School in Shrewsbury, MA, for three years, where she enjoyed coordinating interfaith prayer services and both domestic and international service immersion trips. Her dissertation focuses on the cycle of life, death, and resurrection in Christian theology (particularly that of Ivone Gebara). Her project compares Christian ecofeminism and the Kali tradition of Hinduism to address the traditional tensions between life and death and between creation and salvation to inspire a more integral liberation for all creation.
