Catherine was born in Darwin, Australia. In 2003, she was diagnosed with the degenerative eye disease ‘Retinitis Pigmentosa’ and shortly after was declared legally blind. Aided by her guide dog ‘Austin’ since 2008, they have become a great team and she has never looked back.

Catherine regularly holds interactive educational presentations for children and adults. From each presentation held, $5.00 of each book sale will be donated to the host nominated organisation or charity.

You can visit Catherine’s website at www.dogswithspecialjobs.com.au and Catherine is available for press and media interviews and can be contacted through her publisher, Joshua Books via email
