Get to know me.
Hi! I'm Kaytlyn.
First and foremost, I am a mom with an inspirational and beautiful two-year-old son. Much like you, my family is my top priority, but not my only one. Most of my clients are parents as well and I fully understand juggling professional and personal life.
As the principal of Beneficial Design, I have worked with numerous creative technology-driven companies and passionate entrepreneurs in and around Seattle (see my LinkedIn profile). I attended the Art Institute of Seattle, receiving a degree in web design and interactive media, and have over 14 years in the industry as a digital designer.
I am in love with the web, touch interaction and multiple forms of engaging experiences. My life's work is dedicated to designing elegant and attractive solutions with efficient navigation for my clients — an inspiring group of women.
I love creating a home on-line for someone's writing, photos or business. I channel my client's energy, style and authenticity into something visually appealing and inviting.
My latest foray is into the world of digital books and magazines, and I can't wait to create those experiences for you and your readers.
Currently, I help support green women-owned businesses, enjoy continued lending at Kiva (you can help too!), and volunteering as a Forest Steward at my local park.
