Meet the Haute Cobbler Team
Founder and CEO of Haute Cobbler, Kate Harwood, has always been drawn to creativity and design. From organizing fashion shows at just four years old to creating art in whatever medium offered, Kate’s passion for aesthetics, art and design has been a lifelong pursuit. After spending two decades in the technology sector, where she helped nonprofits solve fundraising and data challenges through roles in customer success, partnerships, and marketing, she felt the pull to return to her creative roots. In 2021, she co-founded Haymaker, a company that redefines how and where people work. Haute Cobbler was hatched, way back in 2011, but was officially founded in 2024. Combining her technical expertise and artistic sensibility, Kate’s vision is to empower individuals to create wardrobes that balance quality, intentional design, craftsmanship, and practicality.
