Katrina first began to work with Peace and Hope (Paz y Esperanza) as a volunteer at the Paz Bolivia office in Santa Cruz, while serving with South America Mission to support the growth of the local church in Bolivia. Katrina studied Spanish and English at Messiah College which led her to further her Spanish language development by living and working in various parts of Latin America, including, serving on the border of Texas and Mexico with a focus in Immigration Advocacy and Asylum relief work. Katrina continued her work in immigration as a paralegal in Pennsylvania and used this legal experience to support the Paz Bolivia team during her volunteer term. Currently, Katrina is living in Lancaster, PA with her husband and four kids.
