Hi! I’m Kate.

I’m a layout-obsessed health and wellness enthusiast, designer and adventurer and I’m committed to making sure your online presence — your website, presentations and content marketing — matches your already rockstar status.

I help small businesses, entrepreneurs, do-gooders & practitioners with their online presence — their websites, marketing materials and investor presentations — in Health, Medical, Integrative Health, Wellness & Travel.

For as long as I can remember, I’ve loved making things look pretty and organized. It’s in my blood.

I’m equally fascinated by human behavior and how our life experiences, nutrition, exercise, vitamins, drugs — or lack there of — affect our health and happiness.

So I guess it’s no surprise that my passion for design and organizing and my fascination with human behavior led to me to a 15-year career (2003-2018) creating over 5,000 marketing proposals, ideas and websites for Fortune 500 companies.

In 2019, I founded Up Designs, LLC — to empower health & wellness businesses to thrive - with premium health & wellness websites, presentations + content marketing that represent their tremendous expertise - to create a happier, healthier world.

Career

For 15 years before I started Up Designs, LLC, I led marketing accounts and teams at People, TIME, Aol, SPIN, UPROXX and more - creating and producing innovative, revenue-generating, multi-platform ideas for elite accounts including Microsoft, Intel, Sony Pictures, Gap, Best Buy, Unilever, VISA, Warner Bros., Kraft, J&J and many more — Resulting in MILLIONS of dollars in revenue.

Education

In 2018, I received a certification from Cornell University in Whole Food Plant-Based Nutrition which was fascinating.

I graduated Magna Cum Laude with a BA in Psychology from Manhattanville College in New York (famous for Jackie O')! Since then, I’ve lived in Connecticut, New York, Tennessee and Chicago, and currently reside in Redondo Beach, CA - heaven!

Core Values

I value Freedom, Adventure and Well-Being above all else.

I believe that everyone has a purpose here (often, multiple!) and it’s our responsibility to live it out.

I did a “when I’m 80” exercise and it was by far the most powerful way to plan a fulfilled life I love.

… Because an
unfulfilled life
shouldn’t be an option.

Are you ready to have an online presence that you’re proud of?
