Meet the Designer
Hey there! I'm Katy, a creative soul with a passion for both user interface design and interior design. After embarking on a career change, I've spent the last year diving deep into UI Design through a program called Shift Nudge, honing my skills and exploring new horizons in the digital realm.
I've recently moved back to the Bay Area and have been re-exploring the city with fresh eyes. In my free time you can find me soaking in the vibrant culture, biking to a yoga class, and getting outdoors into the beautiful nature as much as possible.
When I'm not immersed in UI design, you'll find me enjoying quality time with my two French Bulldogs and my husband, or getting inspired by all things interior design. While living in central Pennsylvania, I poured my creativity into renovating our 1930s Tudor Craftsman home – it was an experience sparked my love for blending old charm with fresh design.
I'm on a mission to infuse creativity into every aspect of my life, whether it's designing a seamless user experience or curating the perfect aesthetic for our home. Let's connect and create something beautiful together!
