She graduated with an associate's degree in medical technology from Anna Maria College in Paxton, Massachusetts. Katrina later received her B.S. in psychology, Summa Cum Laude, from Worcester State College. She received her master's in divinity from the Virginia Theological Seminary. Ordained deacon in 1999 and priest in 2000, Katrina is a familiar face in the Patapsco Valley Area, having served as Parish Coordinator at Christ Church, Columbia, and as seminarian at St. Bartholomew's, Ten Hills.
