Katie Murphy
Katie is the Founder & CEO and a former fractional executive herself. She spent 8 years doing this work before building Knex, because she wished a platform like this had existed when she was doing it. Chasing contracts, chasing payments, figuring out pricing alone. She built Knex so that would not have to be everyone's story.
