Hello,
I'm Katie!
I'm the 'K' in Kdotdesigns
She/Her
I'm a British multidisciplinary and graphic designer born, bred and based in Greater West London, UK.
From a very young age, knew that I wanted to be creative. (I was 4, I drew a chicken... It was probably my best work to date.)
At the babyfaced age of 17, I was humbled by academia. I was mid-way through my A-levels in Art and Design when my teachers told me “they don’t believe i’m going to make it through my courses.” I dropped out of 6th form with a broken heart and my head in my hands. How can I have failed life before I had even started?!
Now, this doesn’t sound like a great start at but what happened next paved the way for a now over 10 year design career...
Desperate to prove my teachers wrong, there was a fire lit under my butt,
I bravely applied for an apprenticeship in Digital Design and was propelled into a world of learning that I could actually commit to. I sailed through my two-year apprenticeship in half the set time and by the age of 19, landing a role as a junior designer, a position most others wouldn’t be in until they had finished university and gotten at least a year of under-grad experience.
...From then onwards,
I just didn't stop!
Over a whole decade later, I still find myself expanding my horizons, continuing to learn new tools and skills and deepening my love of great design. All to provide you the best level of service, ofcourse!
