We met Katie through our friends at Agrarian Trust. In Katie’s words, “I work with several organizations on flowchart-like diagrams that help explain the complex structures behind what they do. Whether the topic is law, neuroscience or technology, my aim is to make complex ideas easy and even friendly for all audiences to understand.

I like the challenge of bringing abstract concepts to life through illustration. The outlets for my work are diverse, but my clients all have one thing in common: they want to bring warmth and friendliness into the way they communicate.”
