I’m Katherine, a California-born designer who has been sketching, painting, and crafting visuals since childhood. With a Design degree from UC Davis, I broadened my creative foundation in Florence studying Art History and honed real-world skills interning with Nanette Lepore in New York. 
After graduation, I joined Tommy Bahama in Seattle—working in their art department on men’s design—while also exploring costume design for local theater productions. From there, I moved to Portland to launch KM Collection.
My path continued through impactful roles at Adidas America and later at Malarkey Roofing Products—where I led strategic marketing as Director and supported sales leadership as Executive Administrator to the VP of Sales.
