What do you love about Wesleyan?

Wesleyan is a vibrant multicultural environment where there is always something new happening.  I love that so many internationally renowned writers, artists, and musicians come to campus.  

What inspires you/ what do you care about?

I recently joined the Board for East Haddam based non-profit, Two Wrasslin' Cats Accord. 

What do you do for fun?

I'm an artist so I spend a lot of time in my studio. In November 2024, I curated a show of protest art by CT based women artists. You can find my work on my website: www.katiaporter.com or on Instagram at: NetherEdge Art Studio.
