Creative Circle
Senior Creative Specialist
During the tumultuous years of the COVID-19 pandemic, I was privileged to have ongoing contract/short-term work with Creative Circle’s client list. Working primarily in the education and non-profit spaces, I took on challenges that ranged from creating and producing a highly visible podcast for a national University —to— ghostwriting speeches for a C-suite executive. The work was never boring, no matter how long or short my consultancy was.
Why choose me?
I am a versatile communications and marketing professional with over two decades of success in my field. Additionally, I have over 6 years of experience in theater publicity and administration. I measure my work against KPIs collectively designed by my colleagues and/or clients. I am data-driven and use every available tool at my disposal to ensure success. I have deep experience in social marketing, publicity, and working with high-level talent from the worlds of politics, business, and entertainment.
What my colleagues have to say…
Steve Swanson — Creative Director at AMD
“Kate is a passionate content writer that likes to push the boundaries. She’s a strong brand advocate that has a pulse on what’s happening in the market. And her commitment and enthusiasm make her a great team player and a valuable asset to any marketing or communications team. Kate likes to challenge conventional thinking and push brands to grow.”
Anne Rakowiecki — Content Writer
“Kate is a natural creative leader. From my first onboarding session with her to the hours we spent getting in the weeds of brand messaging together, Kate was a helpful, knowledgeable, and enthusiastic mentor — and most importantly, a great writer. She has a strong perspective and voice, and she’s not afraid to use them, bringing life to any piece of content she creates.
Kate is never hesitant to offer help to her colleagues, whether they need help balancing their workload or just need a brainstorming buddy. She also has a great mind for the organization of information, making wonderfully thorough brand architecture decks and copy repositories. I’d consider myself lucky to find myself on the same team as Kate again in the future.”
Joshua Elder — Vice President at JP Morgan
“I worked alongside Kate at The Chamberlain Group where we were both senior writers, she in Marketing and me in Design/UX. Kate had already been working at Chamberlain for years when I joined, and she graciously took time out of her schedule to help me get the lay of the land and instruct me on how to use all the company’s internal copy and content resources. With Kate’s help, I was able to hit the ground running at Chamberlain.
That wasn’t her job, by the way. She just saw a colleague in need and did what she could to help. And that’s Kate in a nutshell. Always ready to help. Always trying to improve herself and others. Always going above and beyond.
Kate is a tremendously versatile and hardworking content and copy specialist. She does great as a solo act, but is an even better team player. And any company worth their salt would be lucky indeed to have her on theirs.”

I am occasionally living in a time warp where self-care feels like it takes hours and hours, yet is accomplished in a short amount of time. What magic is this?
