Kate Hamilton’s Biography

Kate Hamilton is a Chicago-based digital marketing manager and social media strategist and award-winning journalist. Passionate social media strategist skilled at shaping content delivery from talking to an audience into engaging with an audience through multiple media channels. Creative, organized self-starter with effective management strategies that result in increased revenue and productivity.

I am the founder and voice behind LoganSquarist: an online hyper-local news outlet dedicated to promoting news, events and happenings in Chicago’s Logan Square. The brand grew from the Twitter handle @LoganSquarist (which now with more than 1000 followers). Recently, RedEye Chicago named @LoganSquarist “a Twitter account you should be following.” I also organize neighborhood Meetups, which bring together local social media enthusiasts for a night of networking.

For more than 10 years, I have blogged on various iterations of this website about cooking, knitting and everyday life as a way to express myself and document life. In 2011, I embarked on a yearlong project called 30 at 30—a celebration of life at 30.
