Kathy took an interesting path to a career in agency leadership. She studied economics as an undergrad at the University of Cincinnati, and that social sciences background trained her to look for the motivators that lead people to make the choices they make. She earned her MBA at what is now UC’s Lindner College of Business, a discipline that prepared her to apply consumer behavior principles in the context of business objectives. After a career that included stops at Accenture, Macy’s and Coca-Cola, she joined Northlich in 2000 as chief financial officer, later serving as COO. As president and CEO since 2007, she helps brands and companies understand both the contribution and the cost of their marketing efforts so they can deliver real value to their shareholders and stakeholders. Kathy loves the outdoors and does her best thinking while walking outside. She loves the Cincinnati neighborhoods of Mt. Adams and OTR for their vibrancy and transformation. Kathy’s proudest achievements are her three bright and caring sons, whom she aspires to someday take on a trip to Australia and New Zealand.

As global head of production and partnerships for Y&R , I am focused on all aspects of content and production; from primary all the way through to high volume video and digital content. It is my goal to bring a pragmatic, but strategic approach to how we respond to the financial pressure of rolling out a modern day campaign. I work with the global business leads and regional Y&R heads in developing solutions for clients and the internal agency teams. And perhaps most importantly, I need to make sure we are partnering with future-focused companies that can help us grow as a company as the advertising eco-system fragments more with each passing month. My background is varied, ranging from managing large global accounts to growing local P&L's. Reporting in to both the Global CEO and CCO, my approach must be balanced between creativity and cost. A fine line, but one that I manage with rigor and passion to ensure that we are delivering modern and progressive production capability. Specialties: Global/Regional Account Management, Digital, Operations, Problem solving, Creativity. Content
