Bio
Annabelle Jewson
I worked closely with Kate on an extremely large scale marketing campaign across the US this year. Kate’s ability to juggle multiple projects was unlike any I’ve seen before and made a huge difference in the productivity level of our team. Kate would most definitely be an asset to any team.
Georgina Howard
Kate is a delight to work with. She is always sprightly regardless of how late she worked or whatever country she is in. She brings warmth and encouragement to the team beneath her and ensures everyone gets the credit for the hard work. She is a pleasure to work with and I hope we get to again.
Melanie Dibley
Kate and I had been in contact a couple of times over the last 2 years so when we had a freelance opportunity that was a perfect match to Kates skills and experience plus it captured Kates knowledge of both UK & US we offered a 6 month contract immediately. Kate joined us when the project was in very early stages and played a key role in supporting the set up of the campaign which had a number of complicated elements. Kate is positive, works to budgets & timelines and devoted to her campaigns. A great team leader and project manager who developed a young team around her whilst focusing on creating & delivering several live events across America.
