Kathryn was born in Omaha, Nebraska on August 28, 1960 to Kenneth and Marian Schlueter. She grew up and attended school in Dakota City. She graduated from South Sioux City High School in 1979.

While attending her college classes, she worked at the St. Luke’s hospital in the Birth Center. After her time in the medical field, she put her teaching certification to use. She worked at Wee Care daycare, Angel House daycare, and Headstart in Sergeant Bluffs. After working with children, she then went to go work for the elderly. She worked at Floyd House, Brickford, and Whispering Creek. She then went to work for MidStep services to help with the disabled. While working there she was also working at Staples.
