“Kate is one of those annoying people who love what they do. I’ve worked with her at two different agencies on three very different accounts across, ahem, two decades. And no matter what challenge is in front of her, Kate attacks it. She has a love of creative, a love of strategy, a love of clients. She even has a love of process. She’s that weird. When the work is great, she’ll be as excited as you are. And she’ll help you sell it with just as much enthusiasm. When the work needs a nudge, she’ll understand what you’re going for, what the client wants, and how to help you bridge the gap. She’s a creative’s account person because she’s a creative account person. Throw in talented, hard-working, and passionate, and that’s Kate. Super annoying.”

“It’s rare that you come across standout ability like Kate. Coming into a new leadership role, Kate walked me through various detailed marketing strategies and helped me analyze and recognize what would work within our infrastructure. Her ability is matched only by her enthusiasm. You can’t help but get caught in her forward momentum. ”

“In the most simple of terms, Kate gets it. While she brought a wealth of marketing expertise to her role and customer group, she took the time to ask questions and listen to the experiences and needs of our channel. By doing this, she was able to add value more quickly and influence behavior more quickly than anyone I’ve seen in the role prior. Her expertise, credibility, and approach ultimately led to dramatic increases in both digital marketing participation and retention based marketing activities within our channel. Neither of these increases would have happened without her leadership. ”

“In a word, Kate is reliable. And that’s invaluable, especially in a team-oriented business where everyone relies on each other to do great work. Besides being super smart and buttoned up, people want to work with Kate because she is equal parts caretaker and motivator. The caretaker part probably comes from being a mother of two - she knows how to empathize and nurture all types of people, especially when we’re feeling vulnerable. The motivator probably comes from being a coxswain on her rowing teams - she also knows how to use her voice to be heard, loud and clear, especially in challenging situations. I never worried if I was delivering the goods while working for Kate, because she’d tell me either way. And I never wondered if she was on top of something, because I knew she was ahead of it. If you’re thinking about hiring her, you can’t go wrong. ”

“Kate was a student of mine who morphed into my marketing guru. Words can’t describe how wonderful it was to have someone helping me with marketing. We tackled things in pieces that were manageable for me (which, having run the show alone for so long, means baby steps!!!) and I can’t recommend her strongly enough if you have marketing needs for your business, large or small. She’s patient, creative, hilarious, smart and all-around good at what she does.”

“Kate’s level of strategic contribution to any given marketing initiative and integrated projec surpasses anyone I’ve worked with in advertising over the past 15 years. Her perspective and efficiency always adds value and increases the quality of work. Throughout the whole end-to-end process she keeps the business goals and objectives at the forefront while also pushing herself and the team to deliver the best customer/user experience. On top of that, Kate brings dedication and enthusiasm to anything she’s involved in. She’s the kind of person I always want on my team. ”

“Kate is very, very knowledgeable about marketing. I love the approach she brings to solve problems. She engages with everyone to make them feel involved and empowered. In addition, what sets her apart is the execution of the strategy and her results orientated approach. Kate has also helped countless small business owners with their local marketing efforts to ultimately increase revenues. She has a passion that is second to none for marketing. ”
