Bringing your vision to life through design

I’m Kate, the Ottawa-based Graphic Designer behind Just Kate Creative.

Hi, I’m Kate, a passionate graphic designer based in Ottawa with a love for clean lines, bold ideas, and impactful design. I believe great design isn’t just about how things look—it’s about how they connect. Whether you're launching a new brand, refreshing your visual identity, or in need of standout graphics that reflect your unique story, I’m here to collaborate with you every step of the way.

It all started with a young girl and Microsoft Paint in 2001…

From an early age, art was always my passion. I didn’t yet have the name for it, but I knew my future would involve both creativity and computers. As I grew older, my love for graphic design blossomed. In high school, I finally took my first official design course — yearbook design! Those days spent in that tiny yearbook class were where I first honed my skills and began learning the fundamentals of design. It was there that I realized, with absolute clarity, that graphic design was my true calling.

After nearly a decade of education, hard work, and industry experience, I’ve built a career and business that I’m proud of today. I spend my days designing, creating, and helping businesses shape their brands and identities. For me, it’s more than just a job — it's a true passion. I can't imagine doing anything else.

I truly believe I have the best job in the world. Helping clients and entrepreneurs build meaningful, beautiful brands that resonate with their audiences is incredibly rewarding. I’m so grateful to work with those who value the effort and heart I put into every project.
