My love for design started at a young age. As a kid I was either drawing or in the corner building things from found objects. My inclination has always been to explore and make.
Now as a designer with over seven years of experience spanning various industries: fashion, graphic design, and UX design. I have developed a deep passion for creating designs that connect with people. My experience working with fortune 500 clients like Albertsons and Walmart, has given me experience delivering designs that meet business objectives while maintaining a strong focus on user experience.
Throughout my career, I have had to adapt and learn new skills to succeed, and I take pride in my ability to work collaboratively and creatively with cross-functional teams. My focus on lifelong learning keeps me curious and always seeking new knowledge to improve my designs.
I am excited to bring my passion and skills to a new team, where I can continue to create impactful designs that connect with users. Whether through freelance projects or a full-time role, I am eager to explore new opportunities and make a positive impact.
"Wow. Just WOW. Katelyn came in like a burst of fresh air on Pulse and, in the face of massive change for how the XD was going to work, adapted to meet the client where they were and how they wanted to work. Katelyn stepped into the role of Product Designer at the request of the client and she was nothing short of perfection. I feel like I cannot praise her enough for the following: beautiful designs, Katelyn is extremely talented, incredible design speed and turn around time, thinking and creating ahead of the client, anticipating client needs by thinking strategically about the future of the platform ready to present fleshed out ideas when the client was just barely thinking about things.
This was SUPER impressive to the client. Excellent presentation skills and communication. Katelyn could turn a 1 hour meeting into a highly efficient and communicative 25 min meeting. Super professional with client and accepting of all feedback with grace and curiosity that had the client feeling heard and understood. Inquired and dug in on feedback to better understand client POV when they weren't exactly sure how to express themselves."
