Hi, I'm Kate

 

I'm a Chicago native turned full-time New Yorker back in 2015. I moved to New York City to pursue my love of graphic and digital design. While working in NYC, I discovered my passion for UX/UI design and art direction. I became obsessed with the idea of creating beautiful and smart digital platforms and found several opportunities working for digital focused e-commerce brands.

In December of 2019, I decided to take a break from the hustle of NYC life and try something different. I booked a one way plane ticket to Sydney, Australia and never looked back.

Today, I am a remote senior product designer for Tripadvisor with a niche in designing for B2C platforms.
