Field Manager
Katie McKearan uses her creativity and customer service experience to make sure our clients and respondents have a seamless experience throughout the research process. She loves tackling big projects, keeping lots of balls in the air, then watching everything fall into place.
As a field manager, Katie assists in the development of screeners, ensures the highest quality of recruits are found, is always available for backroom support, and maintains the distribution of deliverables to clients.
Katie started with IOI in 2022. She has thoroughly enjoyed learning about the marketing research world and is constantly looking to expand her knowledge base. She earned a Family Science degree at Texas Women’s University and worked as a community educator for Texas A&M–Extension Service for five years before taking time to be a stay-at-home mom. Excited for the opportunity to learn from a team of industry experts, Katie is grateful to be part of IOI and appreciates the support, flexibility, and sense of family that IOI has fostered.
Katie grew up in Louisiana but currently lives in Texas with her husband, four children, two dogs (a husky and a black lab mix), and one cat. She is very involved in her local community and kids’ activities. She loves pool days, good food (especially red beans and rice), and family movie nights.
