Hello, I’m Kate — a multidisciplinary designer, visual artist, and photographer with extensive experience across branding, product development, and manufacturing.
I have over 20 years of professional experience in design, more than 10 years in building and leading cross-functional creative teams, and 5 years working directly with manufacturing facilities in Europe and China, overseeing the production of products I have designed. This combination of creative and operational expertise allows me to approach design not only as an aesthetic discipline, but as a strategic business tool.
My portfolio includes projects developed in close collaboration with clients, as well as initiatives where full creative direction — from concept through execution — was entrusted to me. In both cases, my focus remains on clarity, consistency, and long-term value.
I am open to collaboration and consulting opportunities and would be glad to contribute my expertise to your project. Please feel free to contact me by Email.
