Hi! I’m Kate, a Product Designer based in Charlotte, NC.

I design easy-to-use B2B and B2C digital products, focusing on understanding users and creating clear, consistent design systems. I’ve worked on projects from scratch (MVP stage) and enhanced existing products to make them more effective and enjoyable to use.

Key Achievements

Over the past few years, I’ve turned ideas into impactful products:

Quiz Builder MVP

Launched an MVP for one of Europe’s most popular Quiz builders.

Dutch Content Project

Improved a Dutch content project with referral links, growing its subscriber base from 200K to 1.5M in just one year.

Medical MVP for Surgeons

Currently finishing an MVP for a medical project that will make training and education easier for surgeons in Germany.

Design Process

Research & Discovery
1
I start by learning about users, defining goals, and exploring the problem space.

Tools: Notion, FigJamor Miro
User flows
2
I map out how users move through the product to create clear and logical paths.

Tools: FigJam or Miro
Wireframes
3
I sketch and structure key screens to define layout and core interactions.

Tools: Figma
Design & Prototyping
4
I create visual designs, interactive prototypes, and build scalable design systems.

Tools: Figma · Components · Auto Layout
Testing & Validation
5
I test designs with users, gather feedback, and refine the experience based on real insights.

Tools: UserTesting, Google forms
Research & Discovery
6
I work closely with developers to ensure smooth handoff and a consistent final product.

Tools: Jira · Slack · Loom

Beyond Design

Design is my world, but the rest of me comes alive through movement and exploration. I love dancing and teaching women (and occasionally men) to discover confidence, grace, and sides of themselves they never knew existed.

Beyond the screen and the studio, I’m drawn to nature: hiking and camping through the Appalachian Mountains. One day, I dream of standing in the Himalayas and witnessing a volcanic eruption in Iceland.
‍
Curiosity, creativity, and the joy of discovery aren’t just hobbies. They’re the forces that inspire both my designs and the way I live.
I’m always interested in new challenges and opportunities to create impactful products. Feel free to get in touch to discuss your team’s needs or potential collaboration.
