Kate is an Associate at CMG Landscape Architecture with four years of experience. She is a landscape researcher working toward climate-adaptive design – planning with particular care for vulnerable and contaminated landscapes, their resident ecologies, and communities.
Her design work on CMG’s San Francisco Waterfront Resilience Program communicates the values and voices, challenges, and opportunities rooted in the city’s shoreline. As she takes inspiration from these intersections on project work, Kate collaborates with communities to craft environmentally and culturally generative designs.
Kate is the recipient of the Geraldine Knight Scott Travel Fellowship, as well as the 2017-18 University of California Berkeley Award for Excellence in Landscape Architecture. Her background in environmental art, ecology, and soils informs a fascination with the underground as a critical site for design. Kate holds a Master of Landscape Architecture from University of California, Berkeley and a Bachelor of Art and Architectural History from Sarah Lawrence College.
