Kate Willaert decided at age 12 that she was going to be a comic book artist, album cover designer, and world famous rock star. Because if you're not going to dream big, why dream at all?
Instead, Kate took a detour into becoming UI designer for a major online retailer, and eventually become a respected geek culture historian. Her heavily-researched superhero and gaming infographics (and random mash-ups) have appeared on AV Club, Buzzfeed, Complex, CNET, Design Taxi, Fandango, Fast Company, Geek Tyrant, Kotaku, Mashable, Nerdist, The Mary Sue, TIME.com, and more...
When she isn't working on one her of many side-projects (see below), Kate can likely be found reading comics, playing video games, or writing about herself in the third person.
