Kate Trautschold graduated from Marquette University with a B.A. in Advertising and a minor in Studio Art.  After graduating in December of 2005, Kate packed her bags and bid farewell to her swim team and snow to follow the love of her life to Orange County, California.

In Orange County, Kate was thrilled to be able to work at Hot Import Nights as a Designer and Creative Department Marketing Manager.  It was here Kate learned the importance of meeting tight deadlines, “making it work,” and “at the end of the day.”

In the summer of 2008, Kate moved to Marinette, Wisconsin to be closer to friends and family.  Here she had her first taste of freelance design, in addition to a career in human service through her job experience at Michigan Works! in Menominee, MI.  It was after her time here, as Membership Coordinator, that she decided to change her career path from marketing to one where she was making an active difference in the lives of others.  Although not actively seeking employment, please see her resume if you feel you have a project where you could use her expertise.
