Meet Katie Hanson

Hi, I'm Katie! As the daughter of a preschool teacher and a pediatric eye doctor, I always knew I would someday work with children. After finishing nursing school at the University of Missouri-Columbia, I landed in Fort Worth to join Cook's nurse residency program. During my 8-year tenure on the TCU/RCU unit, I developed a passion for caregiver education that inspired me to pursue a career as a nurse practitioner. I'm so thrilled to continue my journey alongside Cook Children's families and participate in their growth - especially as my own family does the same!
