“Kathryn built Eggbasket, an online inventory management and ordering system, for two meat and poultry Community Supported Agriculture programs I was managing, for Clark Summit Farm and Soul Food Farm. She took a janky Google-Doc system that required an enormous amount of my and the farmers' time every month, interviewed me and them, and figured out how to automate 90% of it as well as add cool new features. She created something that did everything we were already doing only better, and added several cool new features (like email reminders). Since one of the farms was distributing a limited, changing inventory (derived from a whole hog or a half-cow), she figured out how to have real-time inventory tracking so that three people couldn't order the same skirt steak in the same window. She was thoughtful about every step of what we did, and made me feel like we were partners in figuring out how to make it work for everyone involved. She is whip smart and yet humble — she has been delightfully patient with user error as well as the "mission creep" of me thinking up new features long after the fact. I can't sing her praises highly enough! ”
