Catie @catie1444 has been learning to navigate the gluten free life since 2016. After dealing with undiagnosed health issues for nearly a year, gluten was found to be one of the offenders. It hasn’t been an easy road to deal with multiple health issues at once, but through a lot of support and stubbornness, she’s come out of the darkness and has been pushing herself out of her comfort zone ever since!
For the past few summers she’s embarked on two solo road trips and her favorite part is discovering new gluten free treats along the way. She’s eternally on the hunt for the best gluten free pizza. (Pizarte in NYC is the current contender to beat).
Catie is passionate about connecting with everyone she meets, animal welfare, books, art, all things Christmas, and playing recreational volleyball. Competitively.
She lives in Houston with her two rescued pets: dog Ziggy, and blue-tongued skink Hirschl and works at a small non-profit. In her free time she writes, volunteers at a wildlife center and strives for an enriching and authentic life.
