“Given our fifty years of marriage, we have had to make an incredible amount of important decisions. One of the very best decisions we made was to select Kate to plan, organize, and run our 50th wedding anniversary. It is virtually impossible to exaggerate how wise, skilled, organized, and empathetic Kate is. She flawlessly dealt with visitors from all over the nation and from foreign lands. Amazingly, she seemed to know what we wanted and needed before we told her. Every single decision she made was the right one. Her efforts were flawless and our many dozens of friends continually complimented her over the course of our three day event. Simply put, Kate is the finest event organizer we have ever encountered. We recommend her without hesitation or reservation. We owe her a great debt and we cannot thank her enough.”

“Kate is a joy to work with. She is creative, thoughtful, and dedicated. Before our wedding, Kate took the time to meet with us and make sure she understood our intentions of the event, how we wanted our guests to feel, and what was most important to us. She put together an excel document to help us organize our to do list, timelines, and things that needed to be taken/cleaned up. It helped us prepare and helped her know exactly what our plans were. While I was getting ready, several people asked “how do you feel?” And after weeks of anxiety and nervousness about the event going well, in the moment, I honestly felt calm and excited because I knew Kate had it under control.”

“Kate successfully coordinated two organizations (Invoke and Golden Hornet), four guest judges, and 16 composers (whittled down from ~300 applicants) to put on one of Austin's highly acclaimed ‘classical’ shows, the ‘String Quartet Smackdown,’ three years in a row. Each year, she worked on improving the experience for all involved from facilitating better communication between the ensemble and composers, to navigating live-streaming capabilities to composers not present at the event, to physically producing the entire show at the venue.”
