Melanie Strong

Katie is the strongest, most creative, future-minded strategist I've ever worked with. She can lead a vision for where consumers and markets will be in 10+ years, while building a plan for what can be done today to create that future. Every project I've worked on with her has been mind-blowing and bending, and super fun. And I've learned tons from her that has helped me in both the corporate and start-up space.

Sarah Kay

Katie is a futurist. A native world-builder that can bring a vision of future to life through imaginative storytelling. She has a wildly exceptional and expansive mind that is constantly piecing together disparate pieces of information to create insight and foresight. And if that wasn’t enough, she’s one of the most talented brand strategists I’ve ever worked with. Katie is a one-in-a-million human. I want to work with her everyday!
