Kate Milliken
Master Storyteller
Kate Milliken is an award winning reporter and producer who creates content, community and conversation in the space of chronic illness. She is the Founder of Moodify, an online platform that allows patients and/or caregivers to lay out their personal narratives based on how they feel. The Moodify technology helps create content moments that are reflective and compelling as well as generates a library of unstructured data that is able to show patterns of what matters (versus what is the matter). The venture began when Kate was diagnosed with MS in 2006. Kate saw a need for moment- based authentic content of what it was like to actually live with an illness, where every entry was tagged with an emotion to make it immediately helpful and easily searchable for people in need of finding others to relate to.
Pre- MS, Kate founded Milligrace Productions, a video production company specializing in mini documentaries for private, corporate and non-profit clients. She has worked in television for more than 15 years, off camera as a producer for the View and VH-1 and as a correspondent in alternative sports (such as snowboarding, mountain biking and monster trucks) where she worked for Fox Sports NET, TNT, TNN the Outdoor Life Network and Oxygen.
Kate believes in the healing power of personal storytelling and is thrilled to be working with rare mothers, who have an extraordinary story of love and resilience.
