Film Screening and Leadership Workshop
Beauty Beneath the Dirt Film Screening & Leadership Workshop
Katherine Imp, a University of Illinois College of Law alum, will be hosting a leadership workshop on campus next Thursday, Oct. 18. Katherine will also be on campus that day to screen her award-winning documentary feature, Beauty Beneath the Dirt.
Before coming to Illinois, Katherine worked as a door-to-door fundraiser for a number of nationally-recognized, non-profit organizations and was consistently ranked as one of the best fundraisers in the country. She then went on to work for Outward Bound, leading 30-day canoeing trips for at-risk youth. Though Katherine's formal education is in law, her background, entrepreneurial skills and creative interests led her to produce, market, and distribute the feature film, Beauty Beneath the Dirt, while simultaneously practicing law at the prestigious Chicago law firm, Segal, McCambridge Singer & Mahoney, Ltd.. These endeavors prompted her to launch http://ringleaderkate.com, a blog dedicated to providing its audience with tools and tips to succeed, both personally and professionally.
