MEET KATE
I'm Kate Farrow, a dedicated mother of two, resilient Gen Xer with grit, and a lifelong Kentuckian. Rooted in the values of hard work, financial responsibility, kindness, and community service, I am committed to serving my community and making a positive impact.
I grew up in a Catholic Republican family, but I learned to think for myself and challenge the status quo. My education journey led me through both Catholic and public schools in Louisville, and I graduated 1st in my class from Sullivan University.
My career began at the Louisville Water Company as a union laborer, and through determination and dedication, I advanced to Operations Manager. This journey has equipped me with the skills to bridge gaps between unions, non-unions, executive leadership, and frontline workers, driving improvements and cost savings along the way.
I have a proven track record of delivering results. At the request of Mayor Greg Fischer, I led a comprehensive departmental review, identifying opportunities for improvement within government departments. My legislative efforts have contributed to enhancing literacy in Kentucky, including the Read to Succeed Act (2022) and SB156 (2023).
Community service is my passion. I volunteer for Habitat for Humanity, have coached recreational league soccer, and support animal services as well as the LiveSTRONG program at the YMCA.
With extensive experience as a business leader, project manager, and investor, I bring a results-oriented, no-nonsense approach to everything I do. I am a skilled collaborator, facilitator, and unifier, with a strong advocacy for women and children.
Together, we can build a brighter future for Kentucky, grounded in hard work, community, and unwavering dedication.
