Katie Van Brunt

Katie is an elementary school teacher turned dance and yoga instructor turned stay-at-home-mom to three kids, but dreams of being a children'sauthor and illustrator when she grows up. She lives in Southern California (for now, Because: Military) with her strikingly handsome Navy Flight Surgeon husband, who's never too cool for Random Dance Parties. When she isn't hiding from her kids in the laundry room, Katie loves creating art, being sarcastic, tagging friends in ridiculous memes, and going to the gym (but only if childcare is included). Katie openly shares her experiences with conquering Postpartum Depression on her personal blog, "Loyal, Loving, & Learning" in hopes of inspiring others to live their best life.
