My Gear
I use a Macbook Air laptop running High Sierra as my main machine, but I also travel with a Lenovo that’s currently on Windows 10. For my personal communications, I carry both iPhone and Android. All of my devices are optimized for privacy and security, and I use a VPN (virtual private network) on all my devices. I also own a Fitbit activity tracker. I'm in the process of mastering digital photography with a Nikon DSLR and building a Wordpress website to showcase my work.
Kat holds a B.S. in Business Administration from California State University, Sacramento. She has a certificate in Systems Programming from CLC and earned her MCDBA (Microsoft Certified Database Administrator) certification in 2006.
