About-Kat.jpg
BRAND IDENTITY DESIGNER FOR SMALL BUSINESSES

I've been a graphic designer for over ten years, six of which I've specialized in Logo and Brand Identity Design. I made the switch to focus specifically on branding because I realized that a logo design is just not enough. Brand owners need more than a fancy logo to compete against big corporate budgets and shortening attention spans.

FOR WORLD CHANGERS, CYCLE BREAKERS, THOUGHT LEADERS

I'M KAT

hello

Over a decade of design experience building brands in a wide range of industries, now on a mission to bring brand visions to life for big thinkers, cycle breakers, and thought leaders.

Kat-Mai-Designs-Branding.jpg

Why? Ten years ago, I was depressed, in a toxic relationship, struggling as a single parent, and unemployed. I've since realized the steps I took to change my life and start my business, was my way of rebranding myself.

Now I want to empower and support anyone else brave enough to share their stories, services, art, or solutions with the world.
