I love making stuff.

My pronouns are she/her/they.

My name is Katie and I go by Kat, itsk8ekat, or KittyKatt.

If you’re here because you know the name ‘KittyKatt’, you probably are here for one of two people.

  1. the KittyKatt that administrates the Linux Mint support channels
  2. the KittyKatt that created the original BASH screenshot information tool, screenfetch

If you’re looking for either of those people, that’s me. You found me.

I make shell stuff. Honestly, it’s pretty much all I make. I learned BASH writing screenfetch and since then have pretty much solved all my problems by over-engineering BASH scripts. Some call me a masochist for this, but whatever. It’s what I know. Don’t be fooled by my GitHub repositories, I shamelessly fork other peoples’ code for most of the non-shell stuff.

I’m based in St. Louis, Missouri, USA, where I work as a DevOps Engineer. I’ve lived here for ~25 years and love it. Really got that small-town, big-city feel to it. Not too crowded, not too desolate. Plus, the food is amazing. If you’ve never had St. Louis toasted raviolis or St. Louis style pizza, you’re not really living.

If you ever wanna chat, you can find me in several places:

  • Various social icons on my home page
  • Discord: KittyKatt
