Katina Corrao is a dynamic, innovative thinker with over 20 years of multifaceted B2B and B2C writing. Her portfolio includes a diverse range of advertising campaigns, compelling blogs, impactful commercials, and television content development.
A career that began on stage, she performed stand-up comedy at nearly every venue in New York City — a skill that would prove invaluable to her writing career because of her ability to blend vivid creativity with strategic messaging. Katina’s debut comedy album, Hot Date, soared to #1 on the iTunes comedy chart, while her children’s book, Katina von Silly, earned five-star reviews from readers of all ages.
Katina’s journey into the world of copywriting was nothing short of serendipitous. After performing stand-up at a talent show for Deutsch Ad Agency, she was hired as a copywriter the very next day. What followed were years of late nights, tight deadlines, and invaluable lessons that shaped her into a skilled, results-driven professional.
As a performer, she brings a unique perspective to her work, incorporating in-depth characters into brand voice development and storytelling. One standout moment in Katina’s career was when she successfully wrote and pitched a Prevacid campaign, embodying the character of Carol — an acid reflux sufferer who, before taking Prevacid, found herself helpless in her quest to enjoy all the culinary delights New York City had to offer. Katina’s passion for writing, versatility, and endless enthusiasm led to collaborations with iconic brands, including Trident, Tylenol, L’Oréal, and the NFL.
As an accomplished ghostwriter, Katina has collaborated with prominent thought leaders to create a diverse range of content, from expansive multi-channel campaigns to concise LinkedIn posts that showcase their expertise and elevate their personal brand.
Katina’s creative energy and commitment to excellence make her a top choice for those seeking exceptional, forward-thinking talent for engaging and targeted content. Katina holds a Bachelor of Arts in English Communications from Cabrini University.
