"Playing Around With Rob Riggle" is a fun example of Kate's ability to drive creativity while introducing brand in an authentic way. Kate produced the YouTube series hosted by comedian and actor Rob Riggle, blending humor and golf in a fun, laid-back format. In each episode, Riggle hits the golf course with celebrity guests, athletes, and fellow comedians, engaging in light-hearted golf challenges, banter, and interviews.
