I’m Katie Evans – the mama behind @hooraymail and believer in living – and parenting – with intention. My husband Mark and I have two little girls – a curly haired and spunky 4 year old Nina and our sweet little Mae Frances is 1.5. By day, I work at a medical software company and am the Board President of a local non-profit. At night (and during my fringe hours!) I run Hooray Mail – personalized subscription snail mail for kids.
