Katie White
Katie White has been fascinated by a multitude of subjects all her life. At 13-years-old Katie realized she couldn't grow up to be everything — a doctor-architect-anthropologist-dancer-teacher-etc. — but she could tell stories about everything. Passionate about ethical and informed reporting, Katie is studying both journalism and sociology at Utah State University. Katie’s favorite part of her work at UPR is interviewing — getting to sit down and talk to people from all different fields of work and walks of life. Outside of work, she loves to craft and always finds a new project to work on.
