Hi!
Meet Katie Jensen: Executive Creative Director, Art Director, mom, artist, and human who eats peanut butter every single day. Born in Dallas, grown in New York, Katie spent 23 years as a die-hard New Yorker and now lives just across the river in Hoboken, NJ (what she lovingly calls NYC’s sixth borough).
Katie is obsessively passionate about big ideas and the impact they have on brands and culture. She cares deeply about design, fitness, stand-up comedy, and cookies (especially when no one is looking). Over the course of her career, she’s led award-winning work across some of the industry’s most iconic agencies, helping build bold, culture-moving campaigns for brands like Carnival, Lenovo, Peloton, General Mills, P&G, Toyota, Best Buy, Kroger, and more.
But above all else, her proudest achievement is her daughter, Nina, age 10. She’s a keeper. Even when she insists on eating hot dog buns for lunch.
