Sitting through 7-hour long City Council meetings hasn't stopped Katie Colaneri from loving the Hoboken beat and recently becoming a resident of the Mile Square City. She is a regular contributor to Hoboken Patch.

Her work has also appeared on NJ.com/HobokenNow, The Jersey Journal, WBGO Jazz 88.3 news and the WBGO Journal.

Katie is a recent graduate of Wellesley College where she double majored in English and French. Her third, unofficial major was all-female a cappella. (Insert shameless plug for The Wellesley Widows here.)
