Kate is an accomplished video game and esports attorney, who on a daily basis deals with everything from intellectual property and trademark issues to developer agreements and esports contracts. Her work in the esports industry has been cited dozens of times by subsequent authors. Kate also recently volunteered for Gamers Outreach, a charity that empowers hospitalized children through video games.

It comes as no surprise then, that in her spare time Kate enjoys video games, an obsession which in a 2015 paper she said her family “endured ... with tireless resolve”.
