She holds a BA in Advertising and Public Relations, an MFA in Creative Writing, and is a Certified Professional Coach (LCIOC) and Public Speaker (AMA). Also an award-winning poet and writer, she was named the inaugural Poet Laureate of Laguna Beach in 2017. Kate's a strong believer in supporting community. Apart from her involvement in a personal capacity, she ensures that Buckley Media provides pro bono work for worthy causes and donates a considerable portion of the proceeds of each domain sale to charities such as Big Brothers Big Sisters, Feeding America, and Promises2Kids.
