About

I’m Kate McLaughlin, a University of Massachusetts Amherst student pursuing degrees in Economics and English with minors in Mathematics, and I also compete as a Division I women’s soccer student-athlete. I enjoy combining strong analytical thinking with clear writing and communication to support fundraising, marketing, and partnership-building efforts that make a real impact.

In my recent roles, I’ve managed 100+ donor relationships, supported grant and capital campaign work, and created museum communications like biweekly newsletters and social content reaching thousands of followers. I also bring event-focused, customer-centered experience from supporting thousands of attendees at UMass sporting events and supervising takeout operations in a fast-paced restaurant environment—balancing responsibility, attention to detail, and teamwork every day.
