✴︎ Hi there — I’m Kait. Welcome to my little corner of the internet.
I’m a graphic designer based in Baltimore. With years of experience working with clients in various industries, I combine research and technical skill with beauty and intuition, creating original work that is purposeful and authentic. Always dreaming, I work from my cat-filled home and can be found outside in the sun, sifting through books, or sketching.
Current design crushes: Na Kim & Jacob McKee
PHILOSOPHYWhat I’ve learned is this —
Design is function.
In good design, there is always a purpose. Design is a practical solution to a problem and there is no unsolvable problem. I am a creative problem-solver and focus on simple, unique ways to communicate solutions that create value for others.
Design is connection.
Design has the ability to change the world, and with the power of impact and influence, we must always create with intention. I create with a desire to make the world a better place. I approach my design work from a place of care for others, respect for my surroundings, and hold true to my core values. Through this, I foster a desire to connect, collaborate, and learn from others to grow as a person and a designer.
Push every idea.
Creativity is a weird, yet magical thing! Being a creative sponge has helped me learn a lot very quickly. One takeaway from it is to push every idea because you never know where creative genius might be hiding. Flushing out your ideas will help keep the creative juices flowing and make you a better designer.
Empathy is a superpower.
Design is an expression of how all things are interconnected, from nature to technology. I strive to gain a deeper understanding of people’s perceptions and needs. Creating connections through empathy helps me to build brands, interfaces, and products that align with my clients and helps express their stories clearly.

We are in the process of recording new music and dreaming up some new branding for the band. Some exciting new projects are on the horizon but in the meantime, we are having fun creating music in a basement.

Listening to new sounds non-stop, I started a side-project where my love for music and design could converge. I am trying my hand at carefully curating a monthly playlist and designing the cover art without any restrictions.
