"I had the pleasure of working with Katherine while she was at Macy’s (fashion jewelry) and I was a vendor. Katherine was not only a delight to collaborate with but sharp with numbers related to growing a business. She had a keen eye for best sellers and knew how to capitalize on that momentum by adding updates to breathe freshness to an assortment. "

"Kate has a rare combination of creative instinct and commercial rigor. She could identify a trend, develop the product, negotiate the cost, and hit the margin target. But what truly sets her apart is that she does it all as a genuine team player. She was one of the strongest merchants I worked with at Saks Off 5th."
