Co-owner, Epiphany Consulting

Kathleen Walker is a people person. Watch her and you'll quickly see that she derives great joy from interacting and communicating with others.

This true Type II (ask her about it) has found her calling as co-owner of Epiphany Consulting. In this role, she works constantly with people, providing insights into how they can more effectively communicate and interact. "Self assessment and self awareness can be very empowering. It is such a high to see it working on a daily basis," explains Kathleen.

A native of South Charleston, WV, Kathleen draws upon her diverse career background in the telecommunications, transportation, healthcare, law and personal service industries when working with clients. She often brings direct experience to the table that relates to clients' challenges and needs. Whatever your field, there's a good chance Kathleen speaks your language.

Long time friend and Epiphany co-owner Kathi Richards introduced Kathleen to the world of human management technology and assessments in 1999, when she hired her as a sales representative for a Charleston consulting and counseling practice. Not long afterward, the pair purchased the business from it's former owner and launched Epiphany Consulting in January 2000.

Kathleen's vision: "I am truly committed to making Epiphany a success. I have been blessed with an incredible business partner and friend in Kathi. We both believe in what we do, and know we make a difference in the people whose lives we touch."
