Dr. Lex is an immunologist with over 10 years of experience working in different arenas within global health to advance the movement of interventions out of the laboratory and into clinical trials. She started her career working in research labs for two pharmaceutical companies, supporting clinical trial analysis and drug development. After obtaining her Masters’ degree in Public Health Microbiology at The George Washington University, Dr. Lex worked for a non-profit vaccine development organization. From there she studied at the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, helping to develop improved diagnostic tests for parasitic diseases and conducting research on the efficacy of large-scale public health interventions for disease elimination. Dr. Katsis completed her PhD in Microbiology and Immunology at The George Washington University, working in a NIH lab focused on parasite immunology and somehow managing to where heels while splitting cell cultures and doing flow cytometry. Since graduating, Dr. Lex has worked for philanthropic organizations and academic research centers supporting cutting-edge research and HIV and COVID clinical trials. When not immersing herself in all things geeky, Dr. Lex can be found ruminating on red carpet fashion choices with her friends, enjoying an occasional glass of champagne and trying to find ways to satisfy her overly curious mind.

About Erin Keam
Erin Keam is a Kiwi living in Seattle who works with women solopreneurs to create their ideal life and achieve their vision. She combines her 23 years’ experience mentoring and being mentored in the recovery field with her career in marketing, film, media, TV, advertising, real estate and customer service (and a passion for fashion) to be a trusted source for solutions to what is getting between you and the life you want.
She offers two paths to progress. One is her unique LifeStyle Statement sessions, in which women uncover their personal themes which are distilled into a one-of-a-kind Statement which can then be taken to every area of their life from wardrobe to relationships to their business to their career and their home.
The other are her “pressure relief” mini-intensives where the focus is on moving closer to your vision through exploring and tackling personal and marketing issues which are keeping you stuck, whether clarifying your website’s message to your clients, looking at how you spend your time and money, decluttering (mental and physical), dressing as who you want to be, assessing the first impression your media and home office make on your ideal clients and creating action plans to get you the life you want.
When she’s not doing this, she’s interviewing women entrepreneurs on her podcast Conversations About Closets With My Closet 1000 Friends, about what they do, why and what they love about it, with one or two questions in there about clothing (there’s that passion for fashion!). Female-identifying (or non-binary) and want to be a guest? Book here!
You can find out more on her website erinkeam.comShe would love to connect with you on Instagram or LinkedIn or Facebook.
Hey, Koa Club members! Something getting between you and your goals? Often, all we need is someone to hold space while we talk through what’s keeping us stuck and the solution presents itself. Book a Talk it Out Call here with Erin. If you want an action step, she’ll suggest one.
