About the Founder: Kate Assaraf
Kate began her beauty career in Los Angeles as a Brand Manager, working on many top brands like Kim Kardashian and SKINN's Collagenesis; which masterfully sold out in 15 minutes in 3 different direct response markets. She later expanded her business capabilities into the toy industry where she managed internationally successful toy brands Cabbage Patch and Disney Princess at Jakks Pacific LA and UK offices. She moved to London for work; then moved to Paris for love; then moved to Sri Lanka to surf and gain an appreciation for humble living. She then moved to New York City in 2013, where she started Ambush Agency in order to facilitate a creative edge for small businesses and start-ups. Her vast knowledge of global brands, the retail environment, and creative connections has helped small brands grow big teeth, while staying resourceful. Kate studied Economics with minors in both Math and Science; graduating at the top of her class. Born and raised in New Jersey, she lives in Manhattan with her husband Jonathan and soon to be baby boy -- coming in July 2015!
