VICE PRESIDENT OF MEDIA
knero@gamedaypr.com
Kathrine Nero has been in front of a camera for more than half her life, and now she’s ready for life on the other side.
She has 25 years experience in television and digital media as an award-winning news anchor, reporter and host. Most of that time was spent anchoring sports and morning news in Cincinnati. Her most recent endeavors took her into the digital and social media space hosting Facebook lives and writing newsletters and columns for The Cincinnati Enquirer.
Kathrine has experience in television, radio, digital, sports, social media, print and podcasting. She’s also a camera coach, content creator and media trainer who shares the lessons learned in 12,000+ hours on camera to make sure you look good for that next Zoom call or media interview.
She lives in NKY with her husband and two daughters and - even as a transplant from Memphis - is one of the area’s biggest fans.
Outside of work, Kathrine serves on the board of the Karen Wellington Foundation and is active in her church. She’s also a word nerd, a coffee aficionado, a grown-up theatre kid, a massive Elvis fan (and former Graceland tour guide) - and two-time breast cancer survivor who reminds you: it’s time to get a mammogram.
Favorite sports memory
Watching Mark McGwire face the Reds in 1998 - right after he hit the home run to break Roger Maris’s record.
What is the best single day on the calendar?
Opening Day. It’s not even a contest.
What’s your favorite: Coffee, Tea, or POP?
Coffee. Hot, iced, fancy, plain - it doesn’t matter as long as there’s a lot of it.
What is your favorite musical?
Newsies for the music and the energy. Wicked for the theme. Lion King for the spectacle. Hamilton, because it’s Hamilton. Clearly, I’ve never met a musical I didn’t like. Nor have I made it through a first act finale without shedding a couple of tears.
