Personal Profile: Katrina Pfost
Personal Profile: Katrina Pfost. Katrina Pfost (pronounced ‘fohst’) denies that a hurricane was named after her. Indeed, all of us that work with Katrina know that she doesn’t create disasters – she prevents disasters. However, coincidentally, before Katrina came to work on staff at CHOICE Humanitarian, she worked for the Red Cross. And believe it or not, Katrina helped coordinate relief efforts for Hurricane Katrina.
Although Katrina’s title is Development Specialist at CHOICE Humanitarian’s Headquarters located in West Jordan, Utah, she wears many hats. She is the go-to staff person for just about anything anyone needs at any given time. If it exists, Katrina can find it or know how to find it. Katrina keeps all the wires uncrossed between volunteers, staff, donors, In-Country Directors, expedition members, board members, vendors and many, many more CHOICE fans and supporters on four continents.
Thanks to Katrina’s attention to detail, CHOICE Humanitarian’s books are always up to date, meetings are scheduled and assignments are understood. Blogs are posted and emails are sent. Katrina is the glue that holds the headquarters office in one piece. She is the sanity in a world moving at a crazy pace.
We salute Katrina Pfost! If you get a chance to talk to Katrina, please say “Thanks for the great job you do!”
