Working with Kate was a sincere pleasure. With careful attention to the intersection of processes and people, Kate leads from a position of deep kindness and incredible work ethic. She's excellent at bringing people together to put the mission of an organization in motion, and she makes that organization a better place in the process.

I had the privilege of working under Kate for 3 years at Frontiers Media. She was an amazing Team Lead and manager, as well as a teacher and mentor; I felt valued and cared about not just as an employee but as a person, and I learned a great deal from her about the publishing industry. Indeed, Kate has a profound understanding of the Open Access publishing landscape as a result of having worked at an OA publisher for years, and even more so, of going out of her way to learn the many facets of the industry by working with and talking to others. Her interpersonal skills are unparalleled, and she will be a real asset to any group of people lucky enough to get to work with her.
