Katie Key celebrates 10 years with Shane Media.

Katie moved from KIKY, Austin, on December 8, 1997 and joined Shane Media as receptionist and office coordinator. She quickly advanced to Operations Manager.

When we launched the Texas Music Chart in 2000, Katie was appointed Chart Editor. The following year she became Associate Editor of Best In Texas Music Magazine and now she's that publication's chief advocate and primary advertising salesperson.

Under Katie's guidance, Best In Texas increased from 10 issues a year in
2004 and 2005 to 12 issues in 2006, increasing gross revenue by 28% over 2005. This year was described as a down year for print. Nonetheless, Best In Texas gross revenue increased another 7.2% compared to 2006.

There's one more congratulatory message: On November 28, Katie and her husband Ken celebrated their 10th wedding anniversary.
