Why hasn’t Congress done anything about Zika yet? #zapzika

September 6, 2016 By katbiggie 1 Comment

zap zika

Congress just returned to work after a seven-week break. Guess what they haven’t done anything about yet? They have done nothing to combat Zika. Over this summer, mosquitos started infecting people with Zika in parts of southern Florida.  In Puerto Rico, thousands of cases of Zika have been diagnosed, including hundreds in pregnant women. And new reports […]

International Women’s Day 2016

March 8, 2016 By katbiggie Leave a Comment

INternational Womens day 2016

Today is International Women’s Day 2016. “Women are still underrepresented at every level in the corporate pipeline. Many people assume this is because women are leaving companies at higher rates than men or due to difficulties balancing work and family. However, our analysis tells a more complex story: women face greater barriers to advancement and […]

Sometimes it’s easier to care about a lion #JusticeForCecil

July 30, 2015 By katbiggie 2 Comments

#JusticeforCecil

#JusticeForCecil If you haven’t seen the Facebook posts about Cecil, the 13 year-old lion allegedly killed by a dentist from the United States, either you’re lucky enough to not be entrenched in social media, or you haven’t been looking. I saw two trends. The first was a broad sharing of the posts about this lion’s tragic […]

#PutANailInIt – help domestic violence victims

July 6, 2015 By katbiggie Leave a Comment

Wouldn’t it be nice if we could completely eradicate domestic violence by having a bunch of super stars paint (or even better Jamberry!) their ring finger purple? So, it’s maybe not so simple. The #PutANailInIt campaign is an awareness campaign and a fundraiser for the organization Safe Horizon, New York-based organization that supports domestic violence victims. “Our intention […]

Charleston shooting victims

The Charleston Shooting has, unfortunately, brought forward some ugly truths that we’ve been trying to ignore. I am upset on so many levels right now. I am sad beyond belief at the loss of some incredible people. Mothers, fathers, coaches, teachers, public servants. Good people. I am upset that we continue to have mass shootings […]

The Safe Delivery App – Maternal Health

December 11, 2014 By katbiggie 1 Comment

maternal health

Since losing my own baby, I have become acutely aware of maternal health and newborn health topics. One platform I have become increasingly passionate about is saving mothers and babies from dying from preventable causes during pregnancy and delivery. In our case, even the best medical facility, the best prenatal care, and access to the […]

gun control activism

I am an accidental activist. An accidental gun control activist. And other than advocating for newborn health, I think this is the most important thing I can spend my time focusing on. But maybe it’s not so accidental. Becoming a Gun Control Activist My whole life has led me to the point that I am […]
