Based in the Twin Cities, Minnesota, Kate is a Senior Designer and illustrator who believes design should be honest, intentional, and a little wild.
She works across patterns, packaging, and branding, weaving together unique florals, hand-painted textures, and playful motifs into work that feels cohesive and unmistakably hers. Color, texture, and form are her love languages — and she's always looking for new ways to push them into something unexpected.
There's an attention to craft in everything she makes — a genuine love for the small decisions that add up to something that just feels right. The hand-lettered touch, the layered pattern, the packaging that feels considered from every angle.
If you're interested in working together, or just want to talk design — I'd love to hear from you.
Every designer has work that shaped the way they think.
These projects represent an earlier chapter — the kind of work that taught me how to listen to a brand, find its personality, and translate that into something visual and lasting. Logo systems, color stories, type pairings, the details that make a brand feel cohesive and considered.
The work here spans industries and scales, but the through line is the same — a belief that good branding should feel inevitable. Like it couldn't have been any other way.
