Hello! I’m Kate

During my 14 years of experience as a Designer for companies like Google, Meta and Wells Fargo, I have created and implemented visual storytelling that effectively communicates brand objectives to diverse target audiences. I consider the broader brand system, industry landscape, customer insights and data, and how to balance various stakeholder perspectives to create a unified strategy that is consistent and exceptionally well-crafted across a wide variety of channels. 

My strong communication skills and team-first attitude allow me to partner with large cross-functional teams and agencies with global brands and products, as well as facilitate design meetings with stakeholders that lead to clear agreement on exciting next steps. I’m used to working nimbly, concepting, iterating, and incorporating feedback amidst ambiguity, evolving design systems, and high visibility projects, from briefing to delivery. I have consistently juggled multiple projects for print and web at a fast pace and high standard, while also considering how to optimize for efficient processes and rewarding collaborations. My calm demeanor and positive outlook ensure that deadlines are met on time and on budget, whatever twists and turns may arise.

Thank you for your consideration. I look forward to connecting with you.
