Here's Who I Am

Hello! My name is Katie Rose Doucet. I was born in Carmichael, California, but I grew up in Austin, Texas. I think of my soul in the Pacific Ocean but my heart in Texas. I graduated from Dripping Springs High School this past year, and I'm really enjoying all the new freedoms that come from college life. In Dripping Springs I live on fifty acres with four horses, four dogs, chickens, one cat, and my parrot Jojo. Here a couple pictures of my beloved Hill Country.

I have two brothers, J.D. who is 21 years old, an International Business and Economics major studying in Okinawa, Japan, and Michael, my little buddy, who is 12 years old and has the warmest heart you'll ever meet. I have a very musical family, both brothers and my dad play guitar and sing, which probably explains my passion for music. In my free time I love going to concerts and listening to music. Even though I'm not proficient yet, I am learning bass guitar and drums. As of now, I'm undeclared, but I am leaning towards doubling in Art and Communications with a minor in Spanish, or perhaps Philosophy. My dream is to attend Film School and write and direct my own films some day.
My secret fact is that I am related to Harry Rossoll, the U.S. Forest Service illustrator who created Smokey the Bear. (The one who who reminds all to put out forest fires.) We own some of the original bears and books.
My latest computer class was Digital Graphics in high school where I learned basic photshop and graphic design techniques. I'm looking forward to this semester!

  3. Katie,

    Now that you mention you were born in California - I definitely see it now. A wonderful mix - the best of both worlds! I've seen some of the pictures you've taken - I think the class should see what a wonderful photographer you are!

    <3 Your fellow Winn 3rd-er, Carmel :)

    *Note: Katie's an awesome baker!!! ^_^

  4. Film school would be really fun. Maybe you'll become famous like Steven Spielberg and then I could say you were in my computer skills class

  5. Hey Katie,
    Two of my aunts live in Dripping Springs and I visit there all the time. My cousing, Hunter Hollingsworth, attends Dripping Springs High School and is a Junior this year-though he is kind of a trouble maker so I doubt you knew him. One of my aunts lives behind Nutty Brown Cafe-which is not quite in Dripping Springs but close.
