About Ripple Consulting Group

Ripple Consulting Group helps executives become the most recognized, credible version of themselves. We specialize in executive visibility: shaping the narratives, platforms, and public profiles that position leaders and their organizations for long-term growth.

We work with leaders across industries, with deep expertise in healthcare (including hospice, palliative care, and senior living), where trust, mission, and reputation aren’t just nice to have. They’re everything.

Katie’s background spans healthcare, financial services, and the nonprofit sector. She served as Director of Marketing and PR at an HCA hospital, VP of Marketing at Studio Bank, and has guided PR and visibility strategies for organizations ranging from Fortune 500 companies to community-rooted nonprofits.

Katie’s connection to healthcare, and particularly to hospice and palliative care, goes deeper than her résumé. Katie grew up in a family funeral home, where she witnessed firsthand how profoundly this kind of care shapes families, communities, and legacies. Today, she serves as Board President of Larkspur Conservation, a natural burial organization in Nashville dedicated to meaningful, land-connected memorialization.

That lived understanding informs how she works with healthcare leaders: not just as a strategist, but as someone who genuinely believes in the mission.

What’s in a name?

Every piece of good work sends ripples outward: beyond the headline, beyond the campaign, beyond the org chart. That’s the idea behind the name.

It’s also a nod to a Grateful Dead favorite: “Ripple” was the song that soothed Katie’s son on every car ride when he was a baby. It’s still a family favorite!

We believe that when leaders show up authentically, with the right story and in the right rooms, the ripples reach further than any single campaign ever could.
