Meet Katie Grubb

Today we’d like to introduce you to Katie Grubb.

Hi Katie, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
A lot of hardships, mental issues, perseverance, and strength got me to where I am today.

I’m sure you wouldn’t say it’s been obstacle-free, but so far would you say the journey has been a fairly smooth road?
Very bumpy. Mental health was a huge mountain to climb. Trauma and not being able to understand my feelings from a young age. Proving myself to people. A lot of self-doubt issues.

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I am currently enrolled in Paul Mitchell learning to be a cosmetologist. I was originally going into the marines and got pretty far into that process before switching.

I’m most proud of making it through the process of being a marine and graduating early from high school and immediately starting college. I’m positive but I tell it how it is.

What was your favorite childhood memory?
Probably “camp out” night. That’s what I and my dad had every Friday night.

We would sleep on the porch and watch baseball or set up air mattresses in the living room and watch movies, specifically Finding Nemo or Monsters Inc.
