I’m Katie—an Austin-based brand strategy director who helps brands figure out what to say, how to say it, and why anyone should care.

With 13+ years of experience, I’ve led strategy for startups, scale-ups, and Fortune 10 brands. My work is rooted in turning research into insights that drive award-winning creative and measurable results. I am a collaborative leader who has built and led integrated teams, mentored junior talent, and helped organizations build new capabilities and grow stronger strategic offerings.

TL;DR: I make decks, decisions, and direction slightly less painful.
