13 years on radio. Nationally syndicated TV. A book. 7 rescued cats. And a community of 50,000+ who show up because the vibes are always good.
"I'm a nerdy girl who helps cats, chats geek culture, loves my community and tries to make the world a little better — all while making sure I keep my 7 rescued felines fed and happy. It's a cool, weird life and I welcome you to be a part of it."
— KJ
After spending 13 years as an award-winning radio personality, KJ has never stopped finding new ways to connect people through story, community, and a healthy obsession with pop culture and cats.
Today, many people across the country know her as the Kitty Correspondent on the nationally syndicated show Pet Pals TV — the face they trust to bring animal welfare stories to life with warmth and wit. Others know her as the founder of the Kinda Nerdy Network, home to the KJ Today Show, the Kinda Nerdy Girls podcast, and The Cat Conversation podcast.
KJ has shared stages with icons from Ed Sheeran and Jon Bon Jovi to Sean Astin, Stan Lee, Carrie Fisher, and the Star Trek: Strange New Worlds cast. She's hosted panels, keynotes, galas, and conventions — and she brings the same energy to every single one.
A multi-passionate entrepreneur at heart, KJ combines her dedication to animal advocacy with a genuine love of Marvel movies, sci-fi, and connecting people who feel like outsiders to communities where they instantly belong.
She helped raise $7M+ for Make-A-Wish, funded $150K in cancer research, and created PurrCon — a first-of-its-kind cat convention — because she genuinely believed cats deserved their own event. (They do.)
An instant Amazon #1 New Release on National Cat Day 2022 — KJ's book is part memoir, part love letter to the cats, communities, and chaotic moments that shaped her career.
If you've ever felt like an outsider who found your people through something delightfully weird, this one's for you.
