DCI STAFF

KATHERINE CORRELL, EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR

    • If I were a superhero my power would be amplifying the skills and powers of people around me.
    • When I am not working I am skiing, cycling, or cooking. Or hanging with my family.
    • The best piece of advice I ever received was to listen more than talk.
    • If I could visit a place that I have not been to yet I would visit St. Lucia.
    • My favorite vacation spot (so far) is a draw between Italy and Turkey. They are both incredibly beautiful, have delicious cuisine, and there are always fun surprises to be stumbled upon. 

    BILL SHRUM, DIRECTOR OF OPERATIONS

    • If I were a superhero my power would be the ability to play a guitar and make people stop what they're doing + dance. Headbanging optional. 
    • When I'm not working I am working on my superhero power. 
    • The best piece of advice I ever received was to invest in a good pillow! You spend a third of your life on it if you're lucky. 
    • If I could visit a place that I have not been yet I would visit Allianz Arena, Munich Germany. 
    • My favorite vacation spot (so far) is Piazza del Duomo, Florence Italy.
