Note about my "1" rating: I attempted to address this problem in 2024 by reaching out to the user a few times to rectify it, and never received a response from them. The other 2 members from that swap received what I sent, but for this person, the swap somehow got lost and was never received. (つ╥﹏╥)つ

Hi there! My name is Katie, and I am a 32 y/o from Georgia, USA! My pronouns are she/her. I've been part of Swap-Bot since 2019, but have been doing swaps, snail mail, and pen palling for over 16 years, now. I am currently a nurse educator for a college, and I am in school for my master's degree in nursing with a nursing education concentration! Nursing, the field of medicine, and education are a huge part of me and my life.

At the beginning of 2025, I was officially diagnosed with autism, in addition to my ADHD. I have learned that this combo is affectionately called "AuDHD." These conditions have a significant, negative impact on my life much of the time, causing problems like executive dysfunction, short-term memory issues, sensory overload, and rejection-sensitive dysphoria, to name a few. I bring this up here because I am asking for grace, patience, and understanding. However, please know that I am not one to flake or send swaps late, but should something arise, I will always communicate with you first.

I love swapping, but am always looking for new pen pals! I'd love to have more pen friends that are less focused on the "goodies" aspect of snail mail and more focused on actually building a lasting friendship. If you are interested, my inbox is open! ଘ(੭◌ˊᵕˋ)੭* ੈ♡‧₊˚

My fiancée and I own two Husky babies, Kippy and Larka; a bearded dragon named Tad Cooper; and a Nanday conure named Gibbs, and I would love to eventually add more scaly babies to our rambunctious group. >⩊<

My other hobbies and interests include spending time with my fiancée and our pets, playing video games, watching anime (when I can), paper crafting, and of course, snail mail!

I am not a stickler whatsoever and will be happy with almost anything that you send! If it's something that I can't use, it will be lovingly rehomed or repurposed. However, these items are an absolute do not send and will lead to a negative rating (and possible report to SB admin):

• Certain types of insects (wasps, spiders, flies, etc.) - if it would have a "creepy crawly" label, I don't like it
• Satanic-related items - I respect and support you if you are a part of this religion, but I would not like to receive related items in the mail
• Political items/statements
• Anything racist, sexist, homophobic, transphobic, anti-LGBTQ+, or anything else discriminatory/prejudice/generally hateful
