A leather jacket-wearing, Aperol Spritz drinking, Stevie Nicks-loving Swiftie, who believes there’s a seat for everybody at the table.
With a degree in graphic design and love for music, Katie spent the first decade of her career working in the music industry. While the backstage passes and great coworkers were definite perks, the long hours, little money, and lack of upward trajectory wasn’t great.
A friend from college suggested she learn a website platform to help with her client design work and to make some extra money. Surprise: That platform was Showit.
Katie quickly fell in love with it, finding herself curled up with her laptop in the corner of dirty rock clubs, building websites in between working her main gig. It wasn’t long before she stepped out to start her own business in 2018, leading to the creation of Rebel + Rise —
Rather than striving to develop a signature design style, R+R provides unbiased design work that matches each client’s aesthetic.

Known for her straight-shooting, always helpful, gets-sh*t-done approach, Katie and her team are the ones you want in your circle when navigating the world of website design — and entrepreneurship at large.
As the agency grew & thrived, Katie later developed its educational arm with the introduction of R+R’s flagship course, Showit-All.

I had a Showit website project that required building out a fairly extensive shop with about 65-70 products, and I knew that building it out would be a fairly time-intensive phase of the project. I was able to share a template for the product page with Katie, and she was able to build out all of the respective product pages during a Dev Day, while I was able to continue work on other projects. She even completed all of the product pages ahead of schedule. Such a relief to have this phase completed!

They took my vision and executed it with precision to any of the revisions I wanted made. As a designer, this process is so invaluable in that it saves me the time I need to continue building on my project in other ways or seeking out new project leads. I'm so grateful for their time and attention to detail and look forward to working with them again soon!

She is the kindest human and gets the job done without asking a million questions. The process is smooth and her first draft is always 95% perfect. Revisions are minimal which makes the process fast, efficient and headache free. Would 10/10 recommend hiring her for Showit development, it has freed up so much of my time and has taken a job off my plate that I personally found draining before!
