Katie Alvino

Chief Marketing Officer
MADD

Katie Alvino is the Chief Marketing Officer and MADD where she is leading the transformation of the organization's brand and marketing strategies. Katie has a proven track record of bringing structure, process and strategy to marketing teams. She has significant private sector experience, beginning with her career at Daymon Worldwide/Kroger and SuperValu, where she worked in brand management and product launches. She spent two tours at International Dairy Queen and Orange Julius, separated by time spent at Phillips Distilling Company. All of these roles gave her consumer-packaged goods experience. But more importantly, she gained hands-on experience working with, strengthening and sometimes reviving powerfully established brands. In 2021 Katie shifted to the nonprofit sector where she worked at the College of Saint Benedict and Saint John’s University to serve as the institutions’ first joint chief marketing officer. She was the driving force in overhauling not only the marketing and communications functions within the two colleges, but also shifting the way marketing and branding are perceived, appreciated and understood. Alvino holds a bachelor’s degree in communications and marketing from Northern Kentucky University. She has also earned a master’s degree in leadership from Augsburg University. That involved study in areas like strategic communication strategies, crisis communication management, cultural competence and transformational leadership strategies.
