Also before Eikosphere.LLC, Catherine spent over a decade working in higher education, earning her PhD studying climate impacts on high mountain ecosystems while at The Swiss Federal Institute of Technology in Zurich, Switzerland (2006). During her academic career she chaired science conferences and symposia, published her research, directed research teams, and presented in Europe and North America. Prior to research, she taught biology, ecology, and environmental science at Denver State College, while working as an ecologist for Boulder County in Colorado.She holds a BA in Cultural Anthropology and International Peace Studies from the University of Notre Dame (UND) and an MS from Utah State University in ecology with an emphasis on forest and alpine ecosystems. While at UND she received a fellowship from the Kellogg Institute to live and to study in India (1990).

Through the art of photography Catherine shares nature’s reflection on how to develop right relationships to one another and the natural world. Inspired by naturalists and artists like John Muir, Georgia O’Keefe, Ansel Adams, Elliot Porter, Brad Washburn, and Galen Rowell, she is committed to re-awakening among us a respect and humility for the world'd glorious landscapes and rich tapestry of culture. Catherine’s vision is to be a voice in the urban jungle that, like a siren, calls us back to our natural roots where we become again one with Nature’s Reflection.
