Kathleen has built and developed award-winning marketing, sales, success, and support teams centered on the principles of authenticity, hard work, and empathy. As the Chief Revenue Officer (CRO) at RepairPal, Kathleen leads all partner and shop initiatives, including business development and strategy, operations, marketing, and customer success. She takes pride in standing for ethical principles and being a female executive in a male-dominated industry. Some describe her as the literal voice of the company, and her laughter once set off glass break alarms in a conference room.
