About
Katrina Kizenbaha (b. 1996, she/her) is a Latvian artist, designer and maker.
Kat's work defies specialisation, yet is defined by clean, friendly and colour-conscious aesthetic.
She has dedicated half a decade to working in the field of software development, however she found her creative pursuits to be ultimately more fulfilling, and finally made the leap of faith into freelancing in 2023.
Kat aims to understand people and make designs that bring people joy, are easy to be around and make the world a more pleasant place, even if just a little.
