Testimonials

Kathryn leads with heart and skill, and that's a powerful combination.
Jinju Kim
‍
Xfinity, Associate Creative Director, Content Strategy
Kathryn brings that rare blend of creative instinct, sharp UX thinking, and graceful leadership that strengthens the team in all the right ways. She can step back and see the big picture but still zero in on what makes an experience truly work. Designers naturally turn to her not just because she's great at what she does, but because she generously shares what she knows. She mentors, she guides, and she makes people better just by working alongside them.

Above all else, Kathryn always keeps her focus squarely on the user and approaches everything she does with honesty, integrity and conviction.

Kathryn has been a gem to work with!
Liyani Rodriguez
Co-Founder, Raddle
She's super responsive, works hard to get the job done thoroughly, and was proactive about things that I hadn't thought about for our landing page and product - particularly evidencing her expertise in UX and design. We especially appreciated her research and deep understanding of the brand and product tools. In a short time period, she was like a member of the team and we're looking forward to working with her on future projects!
