Kathryn was born and raised in Wainwright, Alberta, and is proud to call it home. She attended Lakeland College in Vermilion for early learning and childcare and worked briefly in the area’s daycares and elementary schools, which she finds beneficial to her current position.
In the summer of 2015, Kathryn joined Prairie Vision and has since become a full-time vision therapist. She is proud to be a part of the inaugural class of Vision Therapy Canada’s Practical Vision Therapy Accreditation Program. Kathryn thoroughly enjoys working with patients of all ages, with a special focus on the kids she sees every week for vision therapy.
Kathryn has taken on additional roles at Prairie Vision, including myopia management consultant and digital marketing lead. As a myopia management consultant, she helps patients manage and slow the progression of nearsightedness. As the digital marketing lead, Kathryn handles all digital and social media aspects of the office, helping patients stay informed and engaged with the latest news and updates.
Kathryn enjoys spending time with friends and family outside of the office. She is also passionate about engaging in various crafty activities, loves music, and is a true crime fan. Her favourite eyewear lines are Longchamp and Maui Jim.
