Katherine Klimitas is a New Orleans-based artist and designer who sold her first watercolor at age 10. As the daughter of veterinarians, Katherine expresses her family’s life-long love of animals through her meticulous life-like paintings. She earned a B.A. from Loyola University in 2011, and today at age 30, runs her multifaceted business KAK ART & Designs from home. When clients learn that Katherine has Osteogenesis Imperfecta, also known as brittle bone disease, they are captivated by her unique perspective. She’s 2 feet 7 inches tall, gets around in an electric wheelchair, and creates all of her art, jewelry and commercial graphic design while lying on her side. “Looking Up” is a glimpse into Katherine’s world, a world unlike most. Because she spends most of her time in an electric wheelchair due to her physical condition, she spends a lot of her time looking up. Though the book began as her college senior project, it evolved shortly thereafter into her story, complete with anecdotes, humor, and powerful photography.

Teresa Collins is an experienced, high-impact motivational and empowerment speaker, author, and teacher. Teresa does not hold back as she shares powerful truths and lessons learned throughout her unique and profound experiences in life. She always speaks from her own first-hand, real-life experiences, and she uplifts and inspires others who hear her messages. She shares strategies, outlooks, and attitudes to improve and enrich the lives of those who listen to her message. Teresa has endured more than most people will ever have to experience, but through it all, she maintains an attitude of fierce determination, a resolute will to succeed, and a desire to find all the good that life has to offer. Through sharing her own significant life experiences and how she has not just survived but thrived, she inspires others to never give up and to seek the POWER of positivity, purpose, and potential. You would never know it looking at her now, but Teresa comes from an extremely difficult childhood that involved sexual, verbal, physical, and emotional abuse by her own father and very little support or protection from her mother. She grew up in poverty in Hickory, NC, and often had no food or heat and lived in very difficult circumstances. Her own parents made it clear that she (the product of an affair) was not wanted and was not of value. Despite circumstances that would cause many people to crumble and surrender, Teresa always knew she had intrinsic worth, and has always felt a determination to rise above and find joy and success in life. Later in life, Teresa survived a massive stroke at the age of 29 while pregnant with her fifth child. She was told she would die that night, but she was determined to not only survive, but thrive. She still suffers the effects of that stroke to this day with vision loss and numbness, but she treats those as physical limitations as reminders of how fortunate she is to be alive instead of being bitter or making excuses. Life would test Teresa once again when, after 19 years of marriage, and five children, she was widowed after her husband lost his battle with cancer. Teresa has always chosen to rely on her unfailing positivity to rise above and always keep going no matter what life brings her way. She chooses to be happy, and then and shares how others can find meaning, desire, purpose, and joy in life. Teresa firmly believes that you are a magnet for anything that you want to attract in your life, and that the “hard” actually is there to STRENGTHEN you, not defeat you. Teresa has been sharing her message all around the world for nearly twenty years now to groups of all sizes and demographics. Her desire is to encourage the audience to seek for more, and to find their own unique and limitless potential. Teresa has been able to impact thousands of women and men and encourage them to SET NO LIMITS on themselves. She wants you to face your fears NOW and shift your perspective to have an awakening
