Kate has more than a decade of broad-based PR and communications experience but since 2017 she’s been focused on agriculture. In that time, her expertise in stakeholder relations, public affairs and behaviour change campaigns has been recognised by many clients. In fact, in her last role she even won awards for it!
Kate thrives on working closely with clients to problem solve and generate ideas – in the boardroom, on the factory floor or at the farm gate. And, true to Twig’s ethos, she loves focusing on delivering strategic campaigns that make real change, not just noise.
She started her career studying English Literature and Creative Writing (BA) at Aberystwyth University before rounding it off with an MA in Creative Writing. It wasn’t all academia however - Kate also met her husband Lee in Aberystwyth, and they now live with their children and cat in rural Herefordshire. In her spare time, you’ll find Kate volunteering for her local history society, cooking and painting.
We have worked closely with Phil and the Twig team for more than 15 years and they are an integral part of our business. Their technical knowledge and unique insight into the industry are invaluable to us.
