About Coté

Hi! I’m Coté and I LOVE drawing ideas and making innovation accessible through visuals. As a designer in social innovation and organizational psychologist, I bring decades of experience in place-making, community development, and social entrepreneurship to help you design human-centered strategy. I was born in Chile and live in Chicago, a city of extroverts that celebrate everything—twice, so I’m in great company. I’d love to learn about you and what you are thinking. Let’s chat!

  • “The decision to bring in Coté was transformative to the development of a project idea we had been working on for several months. Coté came in and quickly (and astutely) saw the real potential for the project. She helped the Tribe set a new course that will be a win-win-win for all”

    Maria Ramirez, Duwamish Tribal Services.

  • Coté does a fabulous job connecting, creating pathways, and making it into a story, which enhances engagement and carries ideas forward.

    -Jeanine Mozie, Chief of Staff at Trinity Christian College

  • From boardrooms to conferences, Cote's talent ensures that every intelligence, regardless of background or learning style, is captivated and enlightened. Their graphic facilitation skills breathe life into ideas, making them dance across the canvas with clarity and brilliance.

    -Madeleine Spencer, Placemaking US

  • Cote’s vision and leadership grew this work from a wild idea thrown out into the wind into a whole movement with political and financial backing. I will be forever grateful for all the passion, creativity, and energy she poured into growing our beautiful vision for a more just future for the community."

    Cayce James, Seattle Office of Planning and Community Development.
