Kathryne (Kate) Fassbender accompanies those on their dementia journey. By magnifying the importance of creativity, faith, and human connection, she provides creative care, education, and innovative ways to look at how we live with dementia. Kathryne is a classically trained musician, visual artist, and theater maker, with an academic foundation in creative arts therapies. A native of Wisconsin, she now calls the East Coast home. Kathryne earned her B.S. in Art Therapy from Edgewood College, with continued education in Drama Therapy. After nearly a decade in Life Enrichment, she moved on to be an educator and speaker, working with families and professional care partners alike. Upon starting her own business, Kathryne found ways to balance both practicing her craft in arts and health and sharing with others the knowledge gained as both a professional and family carer. Kathryne, in addition to running two organizations of her own, serves on the Faculty of the Avila Institute of Gerontology.
