Catherine Smith

As the Director of Marketing & Public Relations for the Greater Cincinnati and Dayton offices at Colliers, I have the privilege of leading our marketing and brokerage support teams. With over five years of experience in the industry, I possess a wealth of knowledge in developing and executing effective marketing strategies. In my current role, I am responsible for overseeing the strategic direction of marketing and public relations efforts for all service lines and corporate initiatives. Working closely with the Research and Sales teams, I aim to maximize the impact of our region's research material for the promotion of our office and the Colliers brand.

My strong work ethic and constant drive to improve make me a highly motivated and passionate professional. I approach every day with an open mind and a commitment to excellence, embracing new challenges as opportunities for growth. I am always seeking ways to enhance the quality of my work and strive for continuous improvement. My innovative nature and eagerness to take on new assignments and challenges have made me a valuable asset to any team.

I take great pride in the work I have accomplished thus far, but I am aware that there is always more to learn and achieve. I remain enthusiastic about continuing to grow as a professional, taking on new challenges, and making meaningful contributions to the organizations and teams I am a part of.
