Catherine was a creative, idealistic kid, envisioning a world in which everyone did what they loved most and thus somehow all would work out fine.
Workaholic eco-rebel in design college. Learned to meditate in 1995. 2008: Loving-kindness meditation unexpectedly connected to the experience of soldiers. A personal loss deepened understanding of trauma and regret.
In 2010, Catherine founded the Peace of Mind meditation project, supporting healing and truthful dialogue between combat veterans and civilians.
