Katerina comes to FTI from UK's Built Environment Media (former World Architecture News), where she has been since 2007. Here, she was US West Coast Correspondent and a manager of TenderStream, a global provider of news, business information, project leads, and industry analysis for the architecture, engineering, and construction community. Katerina is a graduate of the Czech-Swiss Institute with a Bachelor’s degree in Corporate Management, Business Management, and Marketing.
