Hey, the name's Kate
Developer turned designer. Ex-Adobe streamer, design agency survivor, and now designing the future of being onchain.
Active quests:
- Design lead at Alchemy
- Crafting 3D renders
- Playing with three.js
I'm a creator inspired by video games.
You can think of me as a designer with an artist's heart.
I've designed for countless clients and industries over the past 7 years--but my passion now lies in designing tools and experiences for web3 developers.
I believe the future for artists and creators is onchain, and I derive great joy from playing a part in onboarding developers to build that future.
Outside of working at Alchemy, I've spent the last 4 years as a hobbyist 3D artist. You can find me building interactive experiences in in webGL + three.js, or making art in Blender.

Kate is a wonderful human. I was lucky enough to spend a few months working with her to revamp our website at 4K Protocol, and the result speaks for itself. Not only is Kate a stellar designer with an eye for creative detail, she’s also a genuinely kind person willing to explore various solutions and accommodate feedback.

Kate is a brilliant designer and a pleasure to work with. One of her strongest traits is her ability to manage multiple projects, team members, and clients simultaneously while staying positive and optimistic throughout the process. Her kind and humorous attitude is infectious. Kate would be an excellent leader on any team.
Brandon Hampton
When I received Kate's prototype for a search enhancements feature, I immediately realized that I had just opened up the best file I'd ever seen from another designer. Everyone who works with Kate comments on how talented she is and how great the work that she produces is. She's made me a better designer in the months that we've worked together.
Dan Bartow
Kate recognizes the power that a great user experience has on the adoption and success of products. Her efforts result in more intuitive and adoptable product interfaces. Any design team, with a heavy focus on customer needs and benefits, as well as very high quality design standards and expectations, would be lucky to have Kate.
