PORTFOLIO
I'm Katie, a London-based urban planner, writer and researcher interested in the relationship between health and place. I blend narrative-driven “new journalism” with serious, factual reporting to tell human stories about the political-economic forces shaping contemporary cities.
My writing has appeared in the likes of Aeon, Vittles, Next City, The Planner and Urban Democracy Lab. I’ve contributed to research published by the Town and Country Planning Association and U.S. Human Rights Network. I’m also one of three regular hosts on the Conversations in Momentum podcast, which discusses a range of topics in sustainable transport.
Right now, I’m working on a book project about urban environmental health.
