At Anchor Change, we empower organizations to navigate the complex intersection of technology and politics. Through strategic consulting, thought leadership, and creative storytelling, we guide our clients to make informed decisions that balance innovation with responsibility, leaving a legacy of progress and integrity.
My career spans political campaigns, civil society, and global technology leadership. At Facebook, I spent a decade building and leading international teams that managed elections and empowered governments, political figures, and organizations to connect meaningfully with their audiences. Prior to my time at Facebook, I held senior digital roles at the Republican National Committee, the National Republican Senatorial Committee, and the DCI Group.
I founded Anchor Change in 2021, inspired by a vision to lead transformative conversations at the intersection of technology and democracy. After a decade at Facebook and a career spent navigating complex global challenges, I recognized that the only way to truly amplify my voice, mentor others, and shape solutions for the future was to build something uniquely my own.
I am the CEO of Anchor Change, a technology consulting firm, and the Chief Global Affairs Officer at Duco Experts, where I navigate the intersections of technology, democracy, and policy. Described by Foreign Policy Magazine as an “election whisperer to the tech industry,” I am a trusted guide for leaders seeking clarity and transformation in the rapidly evolving digital age.

It's allowed us to distill complex information into clear, concise, and compelling analysis that has been persuasive at the executive level. Katie has not only understood our business objectives but also anticipated the questions, concerns, and interests that our leadership team would have. Katie's strategic insights resulted in informed decision-making on questions that crossed both product and policy development.
We brought her in to support the Aspen Institute’s AI and elections program because of her deep expertise, strategic insight, and ability to navigate complex, high-stakes issues with credibility and balance.

There’s a lot of panicking happening right now and that won’t stop anytime soon. Remember to do so responsibly by getting your t-shirt, hoodie or wine glass today!
I founded Panic Responsibly in Fall 2023 amidst growing concerns about AI’s impact on elections and society. I coined the phrase to promote balance during chaotic times. While staying diligent about AI risks, I wanted to remind people to focus on what’s real, not hypothetical fears, and to acknowledge the positive contributions that AI and technology bring to our lives.
