“It has been a true honor and privilege working with Kathryn over the last three years. As someone who works for and with multiple nonprofits in the community, Kathryn was one of the most outspoken advocates for the services that CNM can help provide to the nonprofits serving our community. I have been attending CNM programming consistently for the last eight years, and I can confidently say that Kathryn revolutionized their marketing presence. CNM's social media footprint has vastly improved since Kathryn took the reigns, and it has led to higher engagement and awareness of everything that CNM has to offer. Kathryn took great care in ensuring consistency of branding across platforms and truly creating a signature look for CNM in its various touch points throughout the community. Kathryn's cultivation of the Young Nonprofit Professionals group was the most I have seen done with the group in the last eight years. As someone who serves with a similar national organization, Kathryn has demonstrated best practices in recruiting, retaining, and engaging young nonprofit professionals. Finally, Kathryn is a strong community advocate. I consider myself pretty plugged in throughout Nashville, and there are rare instances where I have been at an event that Kathryn has not attended throughout the last three years. She is a true relationship builder who takes the time to get to know people and remember little details about them, making interactions with her more special. The next company to have her on their team will have a true asset and community champion at their disposal.”

“As an independent realtor, how I communicate my services helps determine the success of my business. Kathryn’s knowledge of marketing and sales has allowed me to understand my town’s demographics better and strategize my listings to meet client needs. She uses her knowledge of International Cultures to advise me on communicating with the large Hispanic population that dominates our southwestern town.
