Meet Katie Zoe, founder of The Atrium Group.
Katie has lived in Portland, Maine since 2002, when she arrived fresh out of college with an education degree and a job serving Guinness at a popular Irish pub. After 14 years of education, Katie made the switch to the entrepreneurial world, going through Cornell’s PR Strategies certification program.
Over the last decade, Katie has brought international media to her companies soon after launch. She’s been interviewed on The Cut, FOX, BBC, Forbes, and many more. She co-owned and operated a PR agency that worked with brands such as Marriott and won the Women’s Net Distinguished Business award in 2021. She worked in B2B product sales for a Fortune 500 company. As a business development and communications specialist she developed internal and external marketing campaigns that won several awards.
Katie offers business coaching by creating customized plans that help business owners breakthrough their current growth phase.
Founding The Atrium Group was an intentional melding of her favorite ways to work with clients. A unique blend of support and empowerment through coaching, education, and events that offer collaboration and community.
While the Irish pub that Katie worked at in 2002 has since closed, Katie remains in Portland with her partner Ally, two teenagers Liam and Nora, 5 pets (Stu, Finn, Cece, Pete, Princess & Poptart), and a plethora of nameless houseplants.
