About Kate

I've spent more than 20 years inside complex organizations — sitting close to the executive, learning what it actually takes to move a team forward, and building the operational infrastructure that makes strategy executable.

I've partnered with CEOs, Chiefs of Staff, and senior leadership teams across healthcare, financial services, manufacturing, and higher education — managing enterprise-wide projects, supporting boards of trustees, leading compliance functions, and rebuilding workflows from the ground up. What connects all of it: a leader needed a trusted partner who could see the full picture, align the right people, and drive meaningful progress on what matters most.

I know what it looks like when an organization is growing faster than its systems — when priorities aren't clear, communication breaks down, and operational details fall through the cracks. And I know how much becomes possible when those things are working.

Partner With Kate exists because not every organization is ready for a full-time operations hire — but every leader deserves experienced, strategic support. I'm based in Western Massachusetts and work remotely with teams across the country.

If you’re wondering whether this could be a fit — let’s find out.
