She worked for Mimi Vanderhaven and is listed on the website as Mimi's personal assistant.

The website says:

Kathy attended Ohio University, Cleveland State, and Baldwin-Wallace College. A background in advertising copy writing, sales promotion and display sales gave Kathy what Mimi needed in a personal assistant. She is as comfortable designing and writing advertising as she is planning a marketing program for her clients.

Kathy has traveled extensively and lived in Europe and Asia for several years. She has a son and a large extended family.

She is the first one at any party.

Kathy is most proud of her membership in Strongsville Rotary and you'll regularly see her at chamber of commerce events throughout Northeast Ohio. "I love meeting small business owners and bringing them into the Mimi fold," Kathy smiles.
