In our final segment of Women In History & Women Making History brings us to a member of Sip and Ship that truly brings cross-dimensional talent to our team, Kat Schulthies. Kat started out with us as a mailbox customer and on a whim applied for a barista position. Little did we know that four years later, while welcoming challenges in various roles throughout our organization, naturally, she would become our first Madame General Manager. Kat operates from the mindset that her work is not a sprint. Creating and building takes great patience, collaboration and hard work - and if you want to go far, we must go together - especially the heavy lifting required to move a team, small business and community through unexpected change and safely through a global pandemic.
When asked where Kat finds her inspiration, she introduced us to Mary Frances Kennedy Fisher. An American culinary writer who essentially created the food memoir genre. Her style of writing about food and cooking was so unheard of for a woman, that many people thought she was a man. Her dedication to showcasing all the intricacies and intersections of food, life, and love, whether mundane or gourmet inspires Kat to continue using food as a means to connect with and understand my friends, family, and community.
"First we eat, then we do everything else." - Mary Frances Kennedy Fisher
Kat’s true love is baking and creating beautiful cakes! She sees to it that our Sip and Ship cafes are well appointed with quality and delicious food everyday. On a personal note, I will never forget the incredbile mermaid-themed cake she made for my 50th birthday! When Kat’s not cooking up deliciousness; she enjoys spending time with her cat Littlefoot, exploring the outdoors with her partner Tyler, and celebrating Halloween with friends.
Thank you for joining us in celebrating Kat on her four year work anniversary with Sip and Ship and the women throughout history who fought for what they believed in and cared about. Carving their way through resistance to stir our consciousness and inspire our actions today.
