Design agency, design partner, creative consultant… it’s hard to describe in one phrase how Kat works, but it all begins with her creative input and focus. From there, she builds the right team from her network of experienced fellow co-conspirators.
While Kat has extensive experience in corporate reporting and communications, brand design has always been a focus – and her passion. No matter the audience, she communicates brands’ stories in a way that’s engaging, thoughtful and always beautifully delivered.

Approach
Good design comes most readily from great partnerships, and Kat has happily built relationships that span years with many of her clients. She enjoys working this way, providing support that ebbs and flows alongside the business’s needs.
Alongside these ongoing partnerships, Kat frequently works on fixed-length projects such as brand identity creation, publications, magazines and websites. It all starts with discussing the type and scale of a new project and agreeing on how to work together in a way that suits your needs and budget.
Kat often works alongside a number of trusted partners. These design and creative heavyweights are experts in several fields, from social media to web development to photography and copywriting.
This flexible, team-based approach ensures your project benefits from their expertise and from Kat’s thoughtful coordination and oversight. This consistency of approach ensures high design quality throughout a project.
