She also helped create a new Commercial Bank Analyst/Associate Treasury Services program to retain rising leaders.

Katie was born and raised in small-town Minnesota, with limited interest in sitting on a frozen lake with her dad all winter, she developed quite an affinity towards indoor cold weather entertainment.

She moved to Chicago to attend DePaul University and graduated with a B.A. in Communications. She has been involved in DePaul’s Alumni Sharing Knowledge (ASK) Network, where she connected with recent college grads on career insights. She also ran, raised money and volunteered for Girls on the Run – Chicago; a non-profit organization that works to inspire girls across the city to be confident and healthy.
