Katie Simpson, CPT

ACTIVE.com Staff Writer/Editor

As a former competitive swimmer, Katie understands the importance of staying active. Her love for living a healthy lifestyle translates to her professional life, where she works as an editor specializing in sleep, health, and fitness content.

She has written for several wellness-oriented brands like Health.com, People.com, and SI.com, dishing out knowledge on mattresses, fitness trackers, and everything in between. Outside of work, her passion for wellness continues in the gym, where you can find her lifting weights and doing yoga.

She is currently working towards her personal trainer’s certification so she can continue to share her love of fitness—and proper form—with others.
