Collaboration Testimony
Shawn Westcott - Special Initiatives and Projects Lead at The Wellbeing Project (Ecological Belonging Lead) - Stockholm, Sweden
“I had the pleasure of managing Kate in a global NGO. She was part of a team that was developing a new global program focused on wellbeing, belonging, and deep ecology. The challenges of starting a new program bring lots of emergent factors that require flexibility, creativity, and a deep ability to make sense of many elements in order to develop something worthwhile for the public. The work involved stakeholders and partners from around the globe, and Kate was an invaluable member of the team. Smart, thoughtful, empathetic, and diligent, Kate was able to take complex and varied ideas and thoughtfully structure them in a way that was extremely valuable and helpful to our efforts. She's a very intelligent and structured person who was able to work with minimal supervision but with high quality results. Plus she was a wonderful person to have on the team simply because she's such a great person. I highly recommend Kate and trust she will do great things in her career and to the benefit of society.”

“Kate turned a coffee-chat into a moment of deep introspection and cultural analysis. She brought forth topics that refreshed our brand's editorial direction and crafted them into narratives that helped build our brand voice instead of just 'fit' into it. From her responsiveness, creative direction, cultural intelligence to her witt -- Kate is a narrative leader through and through. I can't recommend her and her work enough.”

“I have had the privilege of working with Kate in two capacities. First, working with her during her time at Georgetown, where she was involved in Intergenerational Trauma Research in partnership with The Wellbeing Project. I was consistently impressed by her ability to take charge of discussions, regardless of who was at the table. Kate was well-informed about the subject matter, had clear objectives, and held everyone accountable. After graduating, Kate joined The Wellbeing Project's Storytelling team, where her contributions were invaluable. She quickly became an expert on Ecological Belonging and adeptly integrated this messaging across various storytelling initiatives. Moreover, she proactively learned about her colleagues' projects, finding ways to support and enhance their work within her area of expertise. Kate is a visionary who approaches her work with an open mind and a sense of endless possibilities. She challenges the status quo and advocates for what is right, inspiring the team to pursue the most impactful strategies aligned with our organizational goals. As a team member, Kate is collaborative and supportive, and her positive enthusiasm is infectious throughout the organization. She is truly a valuable asset to our team.”
