Katie Kimball, CSME, is an Award-Winning Speaker.

She has been a guest in the media many times, from TV to podcasts to TEDx stages and online publications.

In 2020 her TEDxBismarck talk was cancelled, and she took matters into her own hands to get the message out there. The video below is how she sparked the #KidsMealRevolution DIY-style.
