Hi, my name is Katie and I'm a Lead Product Designer & UX Design Manager. A self-described composition queen and a minimalist enthusiast, I'm an effective leader and detail-oriented designer. I can act decisively, balance hard truths with optimism, and lead with integrity and respect. I'm a proud native New Yorker, known for connecting people and design with charm and wit.

My endless curiosity and desire to humanize technology fuels my ambitions to help solve UX/UI problems with design thinking frameworks. My love for interaction is built on a foundation of experience working on brand design and marketing teams.

Over the past decade, Katie has worked at FIGS, Nutrafol, Weedmaps, Pressed, High Times, Papa & Barkley and more.

Studying in New York City, Katie has a BA in Graphic Design from The City University of New York, Baruch College and a Masters in Communication Design from Parsons School of Design, The New School. Proud native New Yorker, they’re currently self-employed, living and working Berlin, DE. They also enjoy making zines, reading, contemporary and modern art, photography, plant-based cuisine and animal and queer advocacy.

Katie’s mantra is: Stay hungry, stay foolish and stop making sense.
