Client testimonials are always something to celebrate!
I’ve collaborated with many creative folks over the years who have a range of talents and unique creative projects. As a creative consultant I love brainstorming, providing project counsel and talking through creative solutions to help you get clear about your project and specific goals. I also offer creative support to help you take a concept, shape it into a specific project, and assist you in taking it into a real world form of expression.
One of the most rewarding parts of what I do is listen. I listen to what you want to do or create, talk over options, pros and cons and strategies to begin the development phase, then provide my professional insight, tools and resources to bring it to life.
Being a creative for creatives brings me so much joy. I really love what I do!
What clients have shared about my creative consulting, production, writing and other creative support services:
“Thank you, Katrina, for doing this! I had a wonderful session, and for any writer who’s stuck on their story or wants to bounce ideas around with another creative person – I highly recommend reaching out to Katrina; she is fantastic! She helped me flesh out the 2nd Act of a horror screenplay I’m working on. If you want to bounce ideas off someone incredibly creative, check her out!”
Renee Miller – Screenwriter, Producer, Filmmaker
“I highly recommend Katrina for creative brainstorming. Talking through my script and beat sheet with Katrina helped me clarify the direction I needed to go. I was stuck and needed to get back writing. Katrina listened, and her targeted questions helped me talk through my ideas and organize them/realize the direction that I needed to go and the next steps. I was able to get back to the script with fresh ideas.” Thank you, Katrina!
Shari Due – Filmmaker, Writer, Producer, Creator of the Water Western trilogy, Watering the West

Working with Katrina was an excellent experience and she gave me wonderful tips to put those ‘finishing touches’ on my work!! (plus, we laughed alot!!!!) I highly recommend her for your next project!!!!!!!”
Bruce M Dunn – Narrative Screenwriter, Actor

Testimonials from participants in my Creative Mastermind
Holding space for true collaboration and exploration is what inspires me most about being a creative consultant. I love helping people on various types of projects because we both get to use our natural creativity and inherent skills in ways that make us happy, while crafting amazing creative works.
“When I first went to Katrina’s weekly Creative Mastermind group, I had a sliver of an idea that I wanted to be a storyteller, story coach, story blogger, speaker, etc. In my late, ‘60’s I’ve spent the last 25 years as a real estate agent, but I knew that I had something else to do. Katrina knew it, too. Six months later, my path is clear, my confidence is high, and with the continued guidance and vision of Katrina, the shift in my thinking and action is startling. I’m coaching, holding monthly seminars on storytelling, teaching for Osher Learning Institute, emceeing events and booking my first speaking gigs. I didn’t even know to imagine this just a few months ago. Thank you, Katrina.”
Mary Roberts—story coach, storyteller, author, speaker
“Joining the Creative Mastermind Online has been a lovely way to receive more accountability and stay connected with other entrepreneurs. Katrina is an insightful creative who offers excellent feedback regarding SEO and marketing copy. I appreciate her ability to hold space and ensure everyone’s voice is heard during Mastermind meetings. She’s consistent in helping you create “homework” and actionable steps and follow through to see how things are going. She has a lovely heart and I’m happy to call her a colleague and friend from afar.”
Cynthia Hauk, MFA, RYT, Founder and Instructor, Mindful Creative Muse
“I can’t really think of a better way to gather a group of people at various stages of creative entrepreneurship and make sure they all get something out of it. Our class consisted of people who had been running their businesses for years, as well as people who hadn’t even started yet, and I truly think it was valuable for everyone. Katrina has a brilliant way of personalizing the class experience for each participant by assigning tasks and “homework” specific to what each individual needs in order to overcome business and creative obstacles – and I found it much easier to stick to my tasks with her and the other members of our group holding me accountable! The whole thing was fun, supportive and inspiring, and I would absolutely recommend it to anyone, at any stage of the entrepreneurial journey!”
Ali Owens, Copywriting & Editing Services
“I would highly recommend Katrina’s Creative Mastermind group to anyone who’s at a place where they feel like they need some guidance + feedback while setting goals for either their small business, personal life, or an upcoming project. Katrina does an incredible job facilitating + guiding the conversations during the meetings, providing a space where people can give + receive constructive feedback in a comfortable manner. Aside from facilitating her meetings well, Katrina is overall an authentically joyful person to be around, she truly cares about those around her + goes out of her way to connect with people!”
Courtney Cyr of Courtney Cyr Design + Events
“When I met Katrina, as a solo graphic designer, I had just joined a co-working community, was burned out from over isolation paired with under-creative corporate work, and about to enter a difficult season of career transition. Joining Creative Mastermind opened up the door in our co-working space for greater connection and support with those I was working alongside. It has been a great platform to share hopes, dreams, goals, resources, do’s/don’ts, ideas, doubts, fears, successes, failures to a supportive audience and receive feedback and encouragement from same. It was also great weekly exercise in listening, note taking, providing meaningful input, informal professionalism, embracing diversity, and demonstrating consideration, care, commitment and countless other character qualities to fellow members. The cost was more than worth the value received, and I highly recommend this group to anyone with the faintest inkling they need or could benefit from it.
Bryan Gaspord, Creative Director of BG Design Co
“It was great to be able to brainstorm solutions to challenges I was having, have a support system and also a certain level of accountability with the other members and it was rewarding to be able to help others with the same.”
Libbi Alcorn of Luxe Event Productions
“The Creative Mastermind group made me realize that as creatives we all face many of the same challenges. I walked away feeling inspired by others ideas and journeys and left motivated to follow my creative passion.”
