Tim Hoste
Head of UI/UX Design at Vydia
I had the pleasure of mentoring Catherine during her time at Vydia, where she excelled as a UI/UX designer. Catherine is an outstanding designer who consistently embraced challenges and delivered exceptional results. She thrived under pressure, turning constructive feedback into clear, actionable improvements that directly enhanced our product. Her contributions across multiple projects were instrumental in helping Vydia launch new features and drive platform growth. I relied heavily on her expertise to prioritize and manage our expanding feature roadmap, and she always rose to the occasion with creativity, attention to detail, and strong execution. I thoroughly enjoyed working with Catherine and recommend her without hesitation. She would be a valuable asset to any team.
Lauren Masterson
VP of Product at Opus1.io
Catherine is always up for a challenge, stays current on design trends, and has a strong product mindset that helps her balance user needs, technical feasibility, and business goals. She collaborates extremely well with PMs and engineers. She takes feedback well, integrates it quickly, and is comfortable working with stakeholders and customers at all levels. I truly enjoyed watching her grow and would enthusiastically recommend her to any team looking for a talented, reliable, and thoughtful designer.
Lawrence Neil
Product Manager at Wordify
Catherine has a sharp eye for detail, a great sense of design, and turned work around quickly without cutting corners. We worked closely together on 'Smart Links', dynamic promotional links generated for artists/labels using Vydia's platform. Designing for artists is a tough job, but her work was embraced, utilized, and publicly promoted by thousands of creatives, including Grammy winners, chart-toppers, and legacy acts. To top it all off, Catherine's just great to work with — friendly, thoughtful, good communicator. Any team would be lucky to have her on board, and I recommend her without reservation.
