What She’s Passionate About
Katie enjoys leveraging creative writing and strategic communication to build community and strengthen brand awareness.
What She Brings to the Table
Armed with degrees in journalism and communication, Katie values detailed storytelling and data-driven results.

Katie is an enthusiastic communicator who works best in an upbeat environment alongside others who challenge her to grow personally and professionally. All told, she's just happy to be here.
Her Values in Action
Katie thrives when it comes to making new connections, engaging outsiders, and helping people feel comfortable. She uses humor and enthusiasm to break the ice and lighten the mood.
She’s Not All Business
When Katie isn’t writing or making connections, she’s usually trying to convince herself she likes to run (she’s completed one full marathon and four half marathons!), sampling local craft beers with friends, or reading a fictional thriller.
What She Can’t Live Without
Crisp fall days, dry wine, cheese boards, Saturday mornings, or onions.
