About

Welcome to my site!

I am the creator of the Karma Cats franchise and children’s book series, which inspires kids to be kind to animals and each other.

I was born and raised in Kansas and have a Master’s Degree in Education and a Bachelor’s Degree in Journalism from the University of Kansas.

I was a yoga teacher and yoga studio owner for 16 years in Kansas City, MO, where I founded Maya Yoga in 2002.

I’m a passionate animal advocate and have been vegan since 2002. I host a vegan cooking show on YouTube, called, Vegan Vitality, where I share my favorite recipes. Click here.

I love helping recue cats find their forever homes and am a volunteer at Rancho Coastal Humane Society in Encinitas, CA.

Let me know if I can help you in any way. I’m available for storytime events, speaking engagements and writing consulting.

Thank you for stopping by!

Much love,

Kathleen
