Bio
Ashley Mireles
Kate Farrell has been one of the most engaged and energetic colleagues that I have ever had the pleasure of working with. During the four years that we worked together, Kate became a valuable asset to the marketing team. She is hardworking, honest, and willing to take on new tasks and projects if it means helping our authors and books succeed. With Kate as a part of our team, we were able to meet several major marketing and publicity goals which I truly believe would not have happened without her willingness to go above and beyond. Kate is someone who is genuine and engaging. Her people skills are something that cannot be taught but is key to her success. She is able to de-escalate conflict with grace and ease. The Familius family of employees, authors, sales reps, and partners miss her dearly. She will make an excellent asset to any company interested in working with her.

I had the opportunity and pleasure of working with Kate during her time in the SAG Awards Publicity department. What made Kate really stand out was her fearlessness blended with professionalism. She wasn't afraid to ask questions, speak her mind, or offer well-thought-out alternative solutions. She was (and continues to be) hard-working, upbeat, committed, and encouraging. Since her time at the SAG Awards, Kate has remained a trusted colleague and a regular idea collaborator. I continue to be impressed with Kate’s drive towards her goals, her insatiable curiosity, and her ability to problem-solve on her feet without breaking a sweat.
