DAVIDE PALAZZO, CO-FOUNDER
Head of Technology & Design
Originally hailing from Genoa, Italy and now a proud Italo-Aussie, Davide has spent most of his professional life bringing brands, websites & apps to life for companies of all shapes & sizes. Although he officially began his career as a graphic designer, his obsession with design, eye for style & entrepreneurial nature had him selling his own line of graphic t-shirts from his backpack in high-school. .
Of his 17 years’ commercial industry experience, Davide has spent the last 7 of them providing Technical Leadership and Software Engineering for well-known Australian & global organisations. If that didn’t keep him busy enough, he also works as a consultant & CTO on call, while obviously overseeing the entire technical side of The ‘drobe.
Favourite pastimes: snowboarding, drawing, road tripping & eating pizza (making it too!)
KAT ELIZABETH, CO-FOUNDER
Head of Brand & Marketing
Today, Kat’s best known as the owner of Magnetic Brand Co, host of Becoming Magnetic podcast & face of her self-titled YouTube Channel. But it was a colourful career journey - from musical theatre to real estate, copywriting to course creation - that finally led to her pulling all of her expertise together with personal brand coaching.
As a recovered shopaholic (with an over-stuffed wardrobe and nothing to wear), Kat spent most of her life having a love/hate relationship with clothes which led her to becoming the original guinea pig for The ‘drobe. Testing everything she learned from books like The Curated Closet & The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up, as well as working with many stylists, she’s been on a mission to crack the code of shopping smart, dressing strategically & using style as a means of expression as well as career elevation.
Favourite pastimes: singing, reading, shopping (you can take the girl outta Zara..!) & eating the pizza Dav made
