ABOUT
Katharine Bierce is a marketer and project manager with experience at both startups and Fortune 500 companies. She has 10+ years of content marketing experience, is a PMP certified project manager (and Agile Scrum Master), and someone who gets things done.
Her "extracurriculars" include a number of community organizing
activities, from starting a yoga Slack channel for colleagues to a 200+ virtual volunteering event writing nonpartisan postcards to voters in advance of the 2022 election.
Originally from New York, she combines a "get it done" east coast
attitude with a holistic mindset for innovation that Silicon Valley is known
for. When she’s not doing marketing or project management, she enjoys teaching yoga, hiking, and meditation. She graduated Phi Beta Kappa from the University of Chicago with a B.A. in Psychology.What it's like to work with me
What people are saying
“In Katharine's fast, constructive brain, the future makes perfect sense, even when it involves a complex project. Being around her transports me effortlessly to a future where we don't have to worry, because the path to that future is so clear and well-structured. For Katharine, the future is already realized, so I just sit here and let myself be expertly reorganized. Everything works better after that.”
Megan Goering Mellin, Coach

She’s fantastic at research and has been insanely productive in identifying key metrics for our dashboard.”
