I'm Katie, and I have more than 15 years of experience designing for some of the nation's largest media companies. Throughout my career, I've worked across just about every medium imaginable: advertising campaigns, branding, logo design, digital experiences across web, mobile, OTT, and streaming platforms, environmental graphics, highway billboards, Times Square displays, and plenty more. I've also built brands from the ground up through freelance work, helping businesses create identities that stand out. On top of that, I have a degree in journalism, which gives me a strong foundation in storytelling and communication that I still get to put to use. I'm passionate about creating thoughtful, impactful design that connects with people. I care deeply about the teams I work with, the products we build, and the audiences we're creating for. I want my work to make a difference, solve real problems, and leave people with a better experience than they had before. I'm naturally curious, always paying attention to what's happening in culture, design, and technology. I practically live on my phone (for better or worse), so staying on top of emerging trends, consumer behavior, and digital experiences comes naturally to me. If you're looking for someone who is a self-starter, thrives in fast-paced environments, brings fresh creative thinking to the table, and genuinely enjoys collaborating with others, I'd love the opportunity to talk with you about how I could contribute to your team.
