Meet Kate: Creative Lead at Design Shop MPLS
From an early age, art has always captivated me. With a mother who is a fine artist and a father in the print industry, it’s safe to say creativity runs deep in my veins. But it’s not just the technical skill of design that I find thrilling - it’s the emotional connection that comes with it. I love the challenge of bringing visual and emotional elements together to create a powerful brand experience, an installation, or a collection of print pieces that truly resonate with people.
Whether it’s brainstorming new ideas or bringing existing ones to life, I’m in it for the long haul. I thrive on having my hands in every part of the process - from the initial conceptualizing to the final execution. It’s all about ensuring that the end result is everything you imagined and more.
As a creative partner, I specialize in helping like-minded business owners - bring their business dreams to life. Together, we’ll figure out how to showcase your brand in the best possible light, so you can stand out and make an impact in the world.
Expertise
With over a decade of experience in the agency world, I have learned the ins and outs of design from step A to step Z. I have a deep passion for the conceptual and branding aspects of design, as well as the human interactions, experiences, and shopping patterns that influence it all. My work spans a diverse range of projects, from restaurant branding + interiors to brand identity + extensions, food packaging, and even pop up installations.
You deserve a design partner that can help push your vision to fruition!
When I decided to expand my family and have babies, I knew that I could continue to bring my expertise to the design world as a solopreneur. For over 5 years now, I have been running my own design business, building on a foundation of over 15 years of freelance experience.
