Katie is ably supported by her assistant Kushanie De Silva.

Katie volunteers her time in community organisations and is the current Chair of the Kentish Regional Clinic Board, a community organisation based in North West Tasmania that provides support and training programs to individuals, families and organisations tackling serious community issues including suicide prevention, LGBTIQA+ and diversity training, mental health self-care and family led education interaction programs for children under 5.
