Kat Valliant

Kat is an amazingly talented designer and artist. When tackling a design challenge, she will always take a step back to understand the larger context, and then present a variety of creative designs that really solve the problem.

Her clear communication skills allow her to incorporate feedback from a variety of team members and iterate on designs until they meet everyone's needs.

She is able to think through complex interactions, present clear wireframes and flows, and carry those designs through to final, polished assets.

Kat not only is a talented UX designer with game, web, and mobile interfaces, but also a natural leader when it came to managing our design team while simultaneously organizing and streamlining processes throughout the company.

She always brings positive energy to meetings that motivates everyone, which is saying a lot considering we were in a remote environment.

I always felt like I was supported as there was never I time where I wasn't aware of the next priority or felt like I wasn't able to communicate and check-in with her.

From the moment she arrived, Kat made a significant impact on the company culture and our team's performance. She is an exceptional leader who fostered a positive and supportive work environment -- not an easy task on an all-remote team.

She is also an empathetic communicator who is always willing to listen to feedback and provide excellent guidance. Kat is also super organized and naturally took on a product manager role within our team, effectively managing priorities, timelines, and resources.

Her organizational skills and ability to prioritize were instrumental in our team enjoying our work, and thus improving our designs.
