Furniture Today’s new 40 Under 40 program spotlights the industry’s “rising stars and up-and-coming leadership in the home furnishings industry.”
In 2013, Kaitlin joined the STORIS team to reinvent its marketing department.

She led key initiatives for the company including its marketing automation program, industry buying group partnerships, and website redesign launch to name a few. Kait has also served as a marketing liaison to WithIt and is a proud supporter of the organization.
In 2016, Kait was an integral part of the creation of STORIS’ eCommerce department. Today this department supports its eSTORIS platform which provides a fully integrated website solution and professional services.

These efforts resulted in the eSTORIS platform supporting multi-million-dollar home furnishings eCommerce websites including those of Top 100 industry leaders American Furniture Warehouse and W. S. Badcock.
Doug Culmone, STORIS President & COO commented, “Kait led the reinvention of two critical departments here at STORIS. It is her forward-thinking mindset that allows her to envision and execute on what’s next for STORIS in the areas of digital marketing and eCommerce. We are excited to see the creative ideas she brings to the industry next.”
