A person with curly hair, wearing a gray shirt, black pants, and gray shoes, leans over a wooden surface, smiling and reaching out with both hands.

Kate Brinkert

Mechanical Engineer

Kate has been making things more or less since the onset of her fine motor skills, which paved the way to a career in bringing ideas to life. Over the years, she’s accumulated a grab bag of creative hobbies (making music, watercolor painting, and photography, to name a few!), which are complemented by her analytical intuition and can-do attitude. She honed her technical skills at the University of Minnesota, where she graduated summa cum laude with a Bachelors of Mechanical Engineering. A people person to her core, Kate loves collaborating with the Kablooe team to tackle complex problems that have real impact on the lives of others.

Kate loves:

  • Outdoor adventures
  • Clever mechanisms
  • Thinking about the meaning of life
