Katie has been a great partner to myself and the entire Site Operations Team, and I sincerely enjoyed working with her over the past 5 years at Bluestem Brands. She is very knowledgeable in keeping up with retail merchandising trends, website merchandising best practices and ecommerce competitive analysis. She also shares her expertise with all stakeholders and doesn’t just keep good ideas to herself. Katie is very process and detailed oriented, which is good to keep projects constantly moving and getting tasks completed and on time. Her communication is respectful and she always makes herself approachable to help answer any questions. It’s obvious Katie cares about the work she does and she helps instill that passion in me and many others. I'd recommend Katie to any employer looking for someone who can lead their Site Merchandising space.
