Katie Fellows has been promoted from her position as Director of Client Services for the West to the Vice President of Client Services for the Midwest at Chicago based, Curion, the world class consumer insights and sensory company that accelerates client businesses by providing powerful, actionable consumer data for Fortune 500 and other blue-chip companies in the food and beverage, personal care, fine fragrance and home and fabric care industries.

In her new role as VP of Client Services, Katie will be leading strategic consultation for Curion’s Midwest client base in product and marketplace performance.

Katie’s promotion comes after only eight months with the company, where she worked to design and manage research projects for several of Curion’s largest clients.

Katie has been a sensory & consumer science expert for several leading food & beverage companies for over 15 years. She started her sensory career with Pepsi-Co where she brought her expertise to Tropicana and Gatorade brands.

Curion CEO, Sean Bisceglia, adds, “Katie’s previous experience at Pepsi and KraftHeinz give her unique insight into the needs of our clients that has helped her successfully grow relationships in the west. It only makes sense to bring her talents to lead our Midwest Team, where she will have the chance to continue meeting and building our clients’ objectives.”

“I believe strongly in Curion’s mission to be disruptors in the industry and drive real value for the clients we support,” says Fellows. “The portfolio of clients in the Midwest is truly impressive,” continues Fellows. “My passion is designing research to have the greatest possible impact on the business. I could not be any more excited to see first-hand how Curion can help each of these clients drive their businesses even further.”
