Testimonials

kind words by coworkers

I known and had the absolute pleasure of working with Katy over the last 5 years, and have been witness to her incredible growth into a true leader during that time. She is a subject matter expert in UX strategy and design and was one of the most trusted partners on the team. She is the epitome of a team player, having stepped up (and stepped outside of her normal role and responsibilities) on multiple occasions to help fill a temporary gap on the team, and she did so flawlessly. Katy is the ultimate collaborator, a respectful and respectable partner, and can always be counted on for her best effort and top notch work. I highly recommend Katy for your team - she’s one of the best.

Shana Seubert

Director of Product Management

I have had the pleasure to be Katy's manager while she was at Foot Locker. I was able to witness her evolution from a junior UX designer to where she is now, a subject matter expert of user experience with extensive knowledge on product development. Katy never stopped learning and never stopped helping others to learn. She brought the teams together by being a relentless communicator who's always making sure all of the involved teams were aligned on the goals. She is a true problem solver who made design recommendations with a strategic approach and quant/ qual data. Most importantly, she is a fierce advocate for user. If you are looking for a team member who you can depend on, learn from, and be part of your work family to grow together, you just found her, ready to be amazed! 🙂

Senior UX Manager

Katy is a talented and thoughtful UX designer. During our two years as colleagues, I witnessed Katy's keen eye for what's important for improving our customers' experiences. Katy's patient and does a splendid job to communicate her thoughts while taking time to understand the perspectives of other team members and stakeholders. She's adept at completing both ASAP projects and longer, more complex projects when needed. And she always does so with good humor.

Senior UX Copywriter

Katy is a knowledgeable and driven UX designer. I worked closely with Katy for about a year, during which time she was a great mentor and someone I always knew I could count on for thoughtful advice and guidance. While working together, Katy really helped me grow and become more confident as a designer. She's encouraging, patient and always provides constructive feedback. Being the only remote employee on our core team, she excelled at communication and often took the initiative to bring the team (and cross-functional teams) together on various projects early on. She's a natural leader and is a strong advocate for UX best practices — always keeping accessibility requirements in mind. She motivates those around her to work harder while always keeping the mood light. Any team would be lucky to have Katy join them, I can't recommend her enough.
