Katheryn is a software product manager in the Philadelphia area, writing fantasy and paranormal stories when she's not fighting technology. In 2013, she graduated from King’s College in Pennsylvania with degrees in Computer Science and Professional Writing — so she's always writing, be it software or fiction. She lives with her husband, Eric, their daughters Sophie and Emma, and their mini schnauzer, Ada.
