Bio
Steven C. Rivera
‘Ridiculously strategic’ is the phrase that comes to mind when I think about Katya. Katya played an integral role on the social team at DSW. In my time working with her she handled increased responsibilities without hesitation, was an excellent collaborator, and a constant contributor. Katya constantly challenged the status quo and her ideas were always presented with sound research and reasoning. I was always in awe of her ability to command a room and get people on board with her ideas—even people who were initially on completely different pages. Regardless of how sensitive an issue, not uncommon in the world of social, you could always rely on Katya to remain cool, calm, and collected, and provide effective solutions. Katya would be an asset to any team.

I had the pleasure of managing Katya during her time at DSW where she served as a social media specialist. In this role, her strength for intersecting creativity and business came to life. Her original responsibilities included fostering engagement through community and brand reputation management. However, she quickly extended these responsibilities to platform, content, and influencer outreach planning, where she excelled at cross-functional collaboration to define, launch, and maximize social efforts through integrated marketing plans. She consistently received accolades on challenging the status quo, setting her partners up for success, and her holistic approach. If you're looking for a responsible, proactive, young professional, you've found her!
