Bio
Tina Morris
Katie brings a unique set of skills - deep understanding of capital markets, expertise in running operations teams and a passion for leading millennials and Gen Z. She is a thoughtful and purpose-driven leader who is always focused on learning, growing, and taking on new challenges. I’ve had the pleasure of working with Katie over the past four years as she came to work everyday to both run the global Ratings operation, and continuously transform it for the future needs of the market. Katie is a trusted partner and built tremendous confidence with all her business stakeholders and teams.
