Meet the CEO:
I started SmartMoves International in 2006 to provide business consulting services to small and growing companies, solopreneurs, or professionals who want to lead an entrepreneurial life. Today, we focuses primarily on creating innovative and executable marketing strategies that are tightly linked to business goals.
A long career with IBM and stints with several small and start-up firms has given me a well-rounded perspective on marketing and entrepreneurship. What I enjoy most is using that experience and my creativity to help my clients be successful in their businesses.
I am active in many professional and community organizations:
US Green Business Council, Diversity & Outreach Committee (strategist and Public Relations Manager)
ChangeWorks System
(Certified Practitioner)
Women's Business Center of North Carolina (instructor)
Team Nimbus of North Carolina (Facilitator)
Carylina Toastmaster's Club,
(VP of Purblic Relations)
Triangle North Carolina Chapter, National Coalition of 100 Black Women (VP of Publicity & Communications)
North Carolina Theatre (2nd term Board Member)
Strong Couples, Strong Children (Board Member)
Fuqua-Varina Chamber of Commerce (member)

What my customers are saying:
"I first met Katie at a conference last fall. She has been instrumental in assisting me with developing a strong strategy and vision for my consulting business. In brainstorming sessions, she listened intently and quickly provided me with excellent ideas and suggestions on getting the business started as well as ways to market to target audiences. She also offered great suggestions on tools, websites, and other resources that have been helpful, yet did not cost a fortune. She responds quickly and always has plans and ideas that will take you to the next level." Jocelyn Thornton, CEO, Jocelyn Global Consulting
" Once Katie knew what I wanted to accomplish, her creative energy went into overdrive."
Renee Hill, President, Interiors by Renee
" Thank you again for meeting with me---you really helped me to see my business in a new light! I would not have had the vision to expand into new and supplemental areas (that make a lot of sense) without your insight and creative thinking. You are not only great at what you do, but so fun to do it with!"
