KCatia grew up in Paris, France. Her roots are in the island of Guadeloupe, French West Indies, India and Bretagne. As a child, she was surrounded by art everywhere in her daily life. Life brought her to the United States where she started a career as a world language teacher. She majored in Education for her Master's Degree and took as many art classes she could to feed her passion for painting. The last course she took with Virginia Common Wealth University in 2009 was a post graduate class with professional artists. From this moment, she started painting again and never stopped.
