After a record-setting Kentucky Derby 149 for the Kentucky Derby Museum, the nonprofit organization is already hard at work preparing for Derby 150 and is pleased to share there will be a new addition to its Leadership Team to help prepare for next year.
Katrina Helmer has been named the new Director of Communications and will take over for Rachel Collier Carr, who is leaving to spend more time with her family. The Museum is incredibly thankful for Rachel's tremendous work, talent, and energy that she invested in the Museum since taking the Director's role in 2019.
Katrina worked alongside Rachel for the last year as the Social Media and Communications Manager. Katrina came to the Museum in June 2022 after working as a Communications Director at Louisville Metro Council, and before that she had a 10-year career in television news as a reporter, anchor, and producer in several markets, including Louisville. As Communications Director, Katrina is thrilled to be part of the creative team that will drive the Museum's messaging and storytelling for the historic Derby 150 and beyond.
“Katrina has done a stellar job with our Communications platform since coming to Kentucky Derby Museum. She was a natural fit for the Director position, and we are excited about her bright future at the Museum,” said Patrick Armstrong, Kentucky Derby Museum President and CEO.
