Kathleen is a relatively new chapter member, but she's becoming more active.

Kathleen recently joined the BAAPT Board as Director of Member Services!

Learn more about her… and be sure to say hello at the next BAAPT meeting.

I was born and raised in Cleveland, Ohio and completed my Social Work Education at the Ohio State University. I am currently working at Veterans Affairs Health Care System in Palo Alto as a Medical Social Worker.

I became interested in personality development when I began my first job out of graduate school working with special education students in Akron Public Schools. The MBTI® was always in the "background" of my life, I first heard about MBTI® from one of the many amazing Dominicans Sisters that I met during my undergraduate education at Ohio Dominican University. It was not until one of my friends, who worked in Organizational Development at the Cleveland Clinic, became certified as a MBTI® practitioner that I began to explore type and began to learn about my preference for ISFP. 

I was still only "dabbling" in type however, and it was not until moving to California and meeting my Aunt Marsha's wonderful friend Rob Weston that I began to take it more seriously. I have lived in California for 5 years now and was invited to BAAPT by Rob. That was over 3 years ago now and I have enjoyed becoming more involved in BAAPT to continue "dabbling" in type. I primarily use type in my personal life and it has been a helpful tool for understanding myself, my family, close friends and colleagues.

As someone with a preference for extraverted sensing, I love playing Volleyball, going to CrossFit, and I also just recently moved to Los Altos so I can ride my bike to work rather than being stuck in traffic commuting from Fremont.
