Let's get to know each other.
I started Artio Strategies with a simple mission: to do the work I am passionate about for clients I enjoy working with.
The entirety of my 20-year career has been at the intersection of business and social impact for high profile nonprofit, retail, and technology brands. I bring a unique combination of experience as an in-house leader for global corporations and as a consultant for nonprofit, tribal and mission-driven clients. Throughout, I have also developed a reputation as a respected and forward-thinking sponsorship leader among sports, music and cultural partners.
A few of the companies, clients and partners I've had the pleasure to work with
Amazon • Lyft • Microsoft • Starbucks
Pyramid Communications • WE Communications
Brooklyn Nets • Seattle Seahawks • Seattle Sounders • UW Husky Athletics
AEG Live • Bumbershoot • Mercy Corps • Pike Place Market • Seafair • Sealaska • Seattle Foundation • Seattle Mayor’s Office of Arts and Cultural Affairs • Seattle Theatre Group (STG) • University of Washington
What is Artio?
Good question! The name “Artio” is loosely inspired by my late father, Art Combs, as well as the mythical bear goddess that symbolizes transformation. I thought it was fitting to name my business after such symbols of strength, kindness, and ingenuity, hence Artio Strategies was born.
