Hi, I’m Katie

I am a Creative Director with a passion for clever ideas, beautiful design and storytelling.

I started my career in 2011 at Ogilvy, Cape Town, South Africa and moved to the US in 2018 where I started working for VML in Kansas City. I’m currently living in Los Angeles with my husband and two kids and working for the VML LA office.

I’ve worked on global brands across Africa and the USA and won awards at all the big international shows.

This is a small collection of some of the work I’m proud of.
