Welcome

“What lies behind us and what lies before us are small matters compared to what lies within us.”

¡Bienvenidos!  I am a risk-taker and miracle-maker with five years’ experience living and working abroad.

In 2012 I left the United States to live on the coast of sunny Mexico in the state of Jalisco. I then relocated to the coast of Colombia, where I lived and worked for two amazing years each in Cartagena and Barranquilla. In 2018 I returned to the U.S., and made my way from Charleston, S.C. and Seattle, WA to Sacramento, CA, where my journey in international travel began.

Currently, I develop quality online content working as an independent writer for culture, education, and travel websites. I also use my enthusiasm for teaching and my motivation for assisting others in my role as a bilingual technician serving the people of California.

“[Kate Dana’s] execution of the project – both visually and content-wise – was exactly what we envisioned. She brought some really creative ideas that helped enhance the final product. The project was even completed slightly ahead of schedule.”
