Cathy Sewell

Account Manager

Cathy Sewell is a brand and communications strategist with a passion for helping organizations craft and share their stories with clarity and purpose. She takes a hands-on approach that begins by understanding each client’s unique challenges and goals. From there, she develops integrated communications and brand strategies that elevate visibility, strengthen culture, and position organizations for growth.

Her professional journey spans luxury retail and professional services, most notably nearly two decades with a global construction consultancy, where she led high-performing marketing and communications teams. In this role, she developed strategies that elevated brand visibility, secured hundreds of national media placements annually, and fostered stronger client and employee engagement. She also guided brand positioning and mentored professionals across North America to become confident ambassadors of their company’s story.

What sets Cathy apart is her ability to bridge strategy with humanity. She listens deeply, distills complex ideas into meaningful messages, and crafts integrated communications that resonate inside and outside of an organization. From launching internal platforms that transformed workplace culture to shaping thought leadership initiatives that positioned firms at the forefront of their industries, her approach always begins with people—understanding their needs, their voice, and their aspirations. She approaches every initiative with purpose—ensuring every message aligns with brand values and drives meaningful impact.

Beyond her professional achievements, Cathy is committed to mentoring and community involvement. She has served as a scholarship reviewer for Delta Zeta Sorority, judged national marketing communications awards, volunteered in local schools, and was the co-founder and inaugural president for the Society for Marketing Professional Services (SMPS) Hawaii Chapter. 

She holds an MBA from Hawaii Pacific University and a Bachelor of Business Administration in Marketing from Kent State University. When she’s not helping organizations tell their story, Cathy enjoys creating memories with her family and working with and exploring a range of crafting mediums from resin to wood burning, bringing the same curiosity and intentionality to life outside of work as she does to every client engagement.
