DIRECTOR OF MARKETING AND ENGAGEMENT

katie enzweiler

Katie Enzweiler is passionate about people, community, and creating connections that make a difference. As the Director of Marketing and Engagement at Horizon Community Foundation, she brings more than 18 years of experience in marketing, events, communications, and relationship building to an organization and community she has admired for many years.

Before joining Horizon, Katie worked across the banking, accounting and advisory, and technology industries, where she led marketing initiatives, events, sponsorships, community outreach, and strategic partnerships. Katie’s connection to Horizon goes back more than a decade, when she had the opportunity to work alongside the organization through community events and initiatives. That history made joining the Horizon team feel less like starting something new and more like coming home to a community she cares deeply about.

Outside of work, Katie loves spending time with her husband, Chris, their daughters, Olivia and Nora, and their dog, Taco. She enjoys volunteering at her daughters’ school, spending time with family and friends, and taking advantage of everything Northern Kentucky has to offer.
