What people are saying
“I’ve really valued working with Kate over the last year. Her expertise in product development and sourcing, especially her ability to build strong relationships with suppliers in China, has been a huge asset to Craster. She quickly understands the brief, communicates clearly, and delivers high-quality work. Her support with translations during vendor calls in China has also been incredibly helpful in keeping projects moving smoothly. Kate is reliable, proactive, and genuinely easy to work with. I’m very happy to recommend her and KMN Creative Consulting.” - Jane Murray Head of Product, Craster
