Her new book is on women and success, titled The Female Brand: The Advantage of the Female Mindset in Career Success. As SVP, Director of Advertising and Community Affairs at Citigroup Smith Barney, she was responsible for world-wide branding and advertising at well-known financial services giant for over ten years. Her role included overseeing all advertising: corporate image, wealth management, investment banking, and internet campaigns, many of which won awards for creativity and effectiveness. Catherine cut her teeth in brand strategy and advertising at two major ad agencies. Serving as VP, Management Supervisor, Catherine led the award-winning I Love New York campaign at Wells,Rich, Greene, where she recruited celebrities and Broadway stars to appear pro-bono in the dazzling New York City commercials. Catherine's first job in advertising was under the marketing gurus Al Ries and Jack Trout at Trout & Ries Advertising.

Her articles on branding have been published in T + D magazine, the leading magazine for training and development professionals, Pink magazine and other print and on-line publications. Catherine has been a brand builder and rebrander throughout her life. Originally a journalism and advertising major at the Medill School of Journalism at Northwestern University, she switched to fine arts her senior year. Pursuing her interest in Japanese art history, she earned an M.A. from the University of Washington, and was a Ph.D. Candidate at Harvard University. She won a two-year scholarship from the Japanese Ministry of Education (Mombusho) to study at Tokyo University, and was a Smithsonian summer fellow in Washington D.C. Catherine translated a book, Kano Eitoku and the Kano School of Painting from Japanese (Kodansha) and co-authored Asiatic Art in the Seattle Art Museum. And no branding move in her career was more extreme (or took such a complete brand makeover) than the leap she made from being a Japanese art historian to an executive in the branding world of Madison Avenue. Catherine lives in New York City with her husband and son.
