ABOUT ME ✌️❤️🖊️
I’m Kat, a copywriter and creative director living in Austin, Texas. I’ve been writing, doodling, and crafting ever since I was old enough to hold a pencil, and eventually, a wood sander. I've put my strategic creative chops to work supporting clients of all sizes and industries—from MolsonCoors to the Texas Beef Council to a local Austin law firm. I’m collaborative, easy to work with, and have a passion for mentoring junior creatives.
When I’m not making ads, I’m probably being zen AF at yoga, supporting Austin’s local musicians, or planning my next camping trip. I live in South Austin with my husband, our retired dog Percy Boi, and Aidee the Chicago Street Cat, where we host spontaneous game nights.
