About me
Kate is a Service Designer and Design Researcher. As Lead Designer at NHS Digital, she’s part of a mission to deliver world-class data, insights and statistics services that improve the health and lives of people in England in innovative ways.
Previously Kate worked with numerous global clients in a wide range of sectors at IDEO, including mobility, retail, hospitality, health care, and more.
