Prior to YT Joinery Katie had had a stellar career in hospitality, functions and events. Katie thrives on being organised, meeting new people and bringing their vision into reality, a skill set that transfers seamlessly into kitchen design.
Since meeting Ben in 2013, Katie has covered several key roles at YT Joinery, supporting Ben in the business’ growth and success. Over the years, like Ben, Katie has attended many industry nights and through networking created her own connections and relationships.
In 2016 Ben and Katie travelled to Germany to attend Ligna, the world trade show for woodworking, it was there that Katie’s passion for design was ignited. Katie is currently studying Cert IV in Kitchen and Bathroom Design, is an active member of the KBDi and has significant industry mentors.

Ben had a keen interest in the cabinet making and joinery industry from a young age.
His parents were both in business during Ben’s upbringing and the drive to succeed was passed on. Ben started his apprenticeship as a Cabinet Maker/Joiner straight out of college.
YT Joinery was established in 2012, with a large investment in the latest technology and machinery.
Ben is passionate about continuous improvement and education, this is evident at the workshop in both its layout and capacity.
