Katelyn completed her Master of Science (Chemistry) at the University of Melbourne where she studied electroactive coordination polymers under the supervision of Professor Brendan Abrahams. She is currently a PhD student under the co-supervision of Associate Professor Girish Lakhwani and Professor Deanna D'Alessandro at the University of Sydney. Her research involves the synthesis of chiral coordination polymers and MOFs and the investigation of their chiroptical and non-linear optical properties for their applications in All-Optical devices.
