“Katia was one of the senior stakeholders on the content strategy project we worked on at Nutrition International. She is able to achieve that elusive balance between creating quality work and establishing supportive and productive relationships. Her feedback was always insightful. As part of the project, I interviewed internal stakeholders, Katia's colleagues, who always had wonderful things to say about her work and leadership -- particularly around her ability to create social media channels that expressed the spirit and voice of Nutrition International. I highly recommend Katia as a leader who can create communication strategies that ensure organizations thrive. ”
