Meet Kathi

Kathi Finch helps brilliant technical thinkers become better communicators. She believes that a person’s professional and personal success depends on their ability to connect with others. Those connections begin with communication.

Kathi uses her decades of theater experience to help non-actors build better relationships with clients and co-workers. Her fun and interactive workshops for engineers, IT professionals, and other technical thinkers take positive communication strategies into the workplace to help teams increase profits, improve morale, and deepen connections.

A highly experienced speaker, Kathi has facilitated trainings for groups as varied as K2 Engineering, Mitsubishi Electric Power Products Inc., Seegrid Corporation, ALCOSAN, Versatex, Ferro, BAW Plastics, Brentwood Bank, Cellone’s Bakery, NF & M, Bolland Machine, ARDEX Americas, the Pittsburgh Promise, and Citiparks.

Kathi is a former member of the National Speakers Association and a Past President of the Cranberry Area Toastmasters Club. She is a graduate of the Coro Center for Civic Leadership’s Women in Leadership program and was named one of Pittsburgh’s 40 Under 40 by Pittsburgh Magazine. She also served on the Board of Directors for the Girl Scouts Western Pennsylvania.

In her free time, Kathi enjoys acting in community theater and writing sketch comedy. She’s performed onstage for more than thirty years and has a Master of Arts degree in Theater Education. Not content with just practicing theater arts, she began to practice martial arts in 2015. Now, Kathi regularly taps into her inner Karate Kid by practicing taekwondo. She became State Champion in her division in 2018, became a Certified Instructor in 2019, and earned her third degree black belt in 2021. She is currently working toward her fourth degree rank.
