Kate is ridiculous. Not in the traditional sense (though she is hilarious), but rather ridiculous in how talented she is. Whether it is adding unique perspective to brainstorms, helping craft conceptual visual ideas or designing up a storm based on existing creative direction, she is who I want on my team.... not only for the technical prowess, but the manner in which she performs... with true partnership, lack of ego, self-directed when needed, and all with a smile. I would work with her again in a heartbeat.

Kate is a bright shining team player, with energy and talent to keep everyone around her not only energized but super-creative. She's never had a bad day in her life...and her demeanor shows through in her work! She's a delight to work with and be around. Great designer, multi-talented and versatile, and always smiling!

I had the opportunity to work with Kate as both a contractor and as a salaried employee. I found Kate to be resourceful and responsive in her ability to bring creative solutions to strategies. She always kept up on trends that made sure her work was reflective of rapidly changing consumer tastes.

Kate created my company logo. I was impressed with her interactive and consultative process. She met with me to better understand the mission and the audience I was trying to reach. She then developed several designs. With each iteration she solicited my feedback and gave further choices and recommendations. I am very pleased with the end design. I recommend Kate for design work, she's got a great eye and is able to incorporate clients' perspectives so the final product is clean, artistic and reflective of the business.

Kate is great to work with — she's a creative thinker with a great attitude and a flexible approach. I really appreciate her ability to quickly grasp the most important aspects of a project and deliver on them, on schedule.

Kate was awesome to work with, definitely has the design and management skills to deliver on any project with any time line. Her experience as a designer shows in leading other designers and projects. I'm glad to have worked with Kate, because if I ever need a go-to-get it done, and done well designer, I feel most comfortable collaborating or recommending her for work. It's always good to know great designers and most importantly good people like Kate.

Kate is a creative who really thinks about things from a different point of view and sees other angles to projects that can help a team look at things differently. She's a hard worker who dedicates herself to the tasks she is focused on. She encourages others to think creatively. As a colleague, Kate could liven up the office with her laugh. Or maybe a song (she's also a talented singer). She excelled when she had an opportunity to design something new and fresh. When working on a new logo for our organization with an outside agency, she took what they provided and improved upon it by really understanding the brand we represent. Her mark on that logo will stay with the company (perhaps forever!) in setting our brand identification and style. Overall, Kate will bring ideas and fresh perspective to whatever tasks are before her.
