Hi, I’m Kat.
It’s nice to meet you.
I'm an accomplished creative director with demonstrated success in managing talent, fostering collaboration and driving concepts from vision to execution.
That’s LinkedIn-speak for: I herd creatives, wrestle briefs and pull brilliance out of chaos.
What sets me apart?
I bring 360° vision to creative storytelling and leadership — copy, design, branding and beyond. My sweet spot? That place where strategy hooks up with creative moxie and gives birth to big, brand-building ideas.
Fun fact
Two national agencies created their first Concept Director role (aka Chief Idea Officer) just for me.
But great work is never a solo act.
I’ve led, mentored, and managed teams of up to 15 creatives. My credo: Lead with empathy, passion and believe in the power of donut bribes.
How I got here
DDB -TraceyLocke Dallas→ SGK ATL→ Katalyst ATL
Greatest hits
Learned how to weld so I could write for a welding account. (Yes, I rocked that helmet.)
Directed spots with celebrities, NBA legends, and NFL stars. (Signed memorabilia may or may not be on eBay.)
Received The Rock That Makes Us Roll award from TracyLocke. The trophy? A literal rock bookend. Solid.
Favorite win: Sold a spot with burping grass they swore would never happen. (Call me the client whisperer.)
Outside of work, I help paint the town (literally), organizing and fundraising for murals and planning pocket parks and sanctuaries.
