Bio
Mandy Wong
A talented graphic designer with a great eye for detail, Kate is helpful, positive and a terrific team player. She is able to manage multiple deadlines and is highly successful in achieving stellar results, delivering excellent design work particularly during the rebranding project. A great asset to the Brand & Clients team at Urbis, I enjoyed working with Kate. Hope we will have the opportunity to work together again in the future.
Manny Navarrete
Kate is an absolute rock star designer and a pleasure to work with. She is a very conscientious, dedicated and creative designer who's friendly and professional demeanour has seen her create fantastic/effective work whilst always making a positive impression on her clients and colleagues. Kate is always quick to put her hand up to take on more work/greater responsibilities, all of which she tends to excel with ease, no matter the scale of the project or task. Kate's social awareness is also helping shape office-wide culture as she is taking an active role in making the office more green and environmentally conscious.
