Greater Houston
Hi, I’m Kathleen, but you can call me Kat! I’m a senior at the University of Houston double majoring in Marketing and Management, graduating May 2026. I enjoy turning ideas into strategy and have built hands-on experience in marketing, event planning, and sales through leadership roles and real-world work. A big part of my growth has come from my involvement with the American Marketing Association at UH, where I’ve held multiple leadership roles, led cross-functional teams, supported event strategy and risk management, and helped build cohesive branding across initiatives. It’s been where I’ve learned how to lead with intention and collaborate effectively. Outside of campus, my experience at Treadwell and JINYA helped me strengthen my skills in customer engagement, CRM, and creative problem-solving in fast-paced environments. These roles pushed me to think on my feet and build meaningful connections. I’m passionate about marketing, teamwork, and learning as I go. I’m currently exploring internship and full time opportunities where I can contribute, grow, and take on new challenges. Always happy to grab coffee and connect ☕️ 📩 [email protected]
