Conscious content and reinvented models for a better tomorrow.
It takes deep optimism and faith to conjure a hopeful vision for media in today’s headwinds.
Quality Content
As an English major and avid writer, Kathleen came up through the editorial ranks in book, magazine, and newspaper publishing. She knows that success in media isn’t possible without centering the business around conscious and wanted content — and the talent that creates it. You can’t cut your way to profitability; instead you must innovate with your products and make your audience want to belong to the impact you are making as an institution.
Bottom Line Oriented
The truth is that media is in a period of massive disruption and owners are constantly facing pressure to cut costs and grow declining revenue streams. With experience in change management, software system changes, organizational restructuring, and revenue stream innovation, Kathleen creates profitability through high-minded vision and practical execution.
