A New Yorker through and through, Kate found a second home in the heart of Boston at Samuels & Associates. When the Queens transplant started as a property accountant in 1995, she never imagined that more than twenty years later, she would be corporate controller and human resources manager.Her responsibilities are wide-ranging, from managing the corporate budget, payroll, tax and audits, to serving as unofficial gatekeeper of all the “good snacks,” but the core of her work is to make the team stronger. As a manager and mentor, Kate holds her team to high standards, setting goals based on their potential.

Kate holds her Bachelors in Accounting and Economics from Queens College. She recharges by spending time with her family and friends in Massachusetts and New York.
