Early Career
Katie’s career spans luxury real estate, blue-chip art advisory, and entrepreneurship, giving her a rare cross-disciplinary perspective valued by sophisticated collectors and investors.
She co-founded O2Aspen, a long-standing wellness destination in Aspen, and later established 212GALLERY, where she built a dedicated team of advisors working with collectors and artists from around the world. Her entrepreneurial experience also includes co-founding the art technology platform TWYLA, raising over $23 million in venture funding, and further refining her expertise in negotiation, global marketing, and high-value transactions.
A lifelong Aspen local, Katie offers clients more than market knowledge, she provides cultural fluency, trusted relationships, and generational insight into one of the world’s most desirable mountain communities. She and her husband chose to raise their sons, Taj and Jett, in Aspen, grounding both her business and life in the place she calls home.
Katie supports the Aspen community through her involvement with organizations such as the Aspen Education Foundation, Aspen Flight Academy, Anderson Ranch Arts Center, and the Aspen Art Museum.
