Kathleen Lener
Vice President
Director of Sales and Marketing
Kathy left the field of photography in
1987 to pursue a career in horticulture. She takes a "hands on, in the
trenches" approach to the Interiorscape profession. Prior to Atria, Kathy
worked in the field dealing directly with the public and corporate
managers and also supervised a staff of horticultural technicians.
Achievements:
Kathy's interest in
photography developed while managing photographer Ron Galella’s Photo
Agency for ten years. Her interest in photography has not diminished over
time. She is Atria’s ‘official photographer’. Kathy’s work can viewed at
www.atriainc.com, which she photographed, designed and created. Her
photos have appeared in several industry publications, most notably the
covers of our trade magazines, ‘Interior Business’ and 'Interiorscape
Magazine'. Kathy also creates an in–house newsletter to keep Atria’s
employees informed of company news. As Kathy’s responsibilities have
grown over the past thirteen years, so has her role with Atria. She has
been promoted many times, most currently to Vice President and still holds
the position of Director of Sales and Marketing.
Kathy has completed the required curriculum and has received the New York
Botanical Garden "Interior Landscape" certificate. She also holds a State
of Connecticut "Operational Certificate."
