At NAEA, Katrina led the implementation of a virtual learning strategy, the re-design of the association’s journal, the re-brand of the 48-year old organization, and the creation of partnerships that grew non-dues revenue while delivering member value. Her healthcare background includes holding a position as the Director of Membership, Marketing and Communications at the International Association for the Study of Pain, a global multidisciplinary, scientific association, and serving several years as the Director of Member and Council Relations at the American Academy of Physical Medicine and Rehabilitation.
