At heart I’m a content creator. It’s why I spent 18 years working as a journalist and editor, both on staff and as a freelancer on a range of specialist and mainstream media outlets (see my LinkedIn profile for a detailed career history and a sample of my portfolio of works).
I was a Forbes contributor for 12 months writing about vegan and plant-based businesses, I host the Vegan Business Talk podcast and am the founder and editor-in-chief of VeganBusinessMedia.com.

She truly cares about the causes she writes about and her passion fuels her writing. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Katrina.”
