Katie Wienen

Having grown up in the family hardware business, genuine hospitality and a business mindset run deep in her Midwest roots. Working in the service industry while attending Loras College in Dubuque, Iowa, she quickly realized that hospitality was a fulfilling and rewarding field. After graduating with a B.A. in business management she continued her career in Galena, Illinois, which she would later call home for her and her family. An opportunity arose for a general manager position at Stoney Creek in Galena and she knew it was the moment that she had been waiting for. Katie’s enthusiastic drive for change and servant leadership were quickly noticed by leadership, and after three years in her current role, she accepted a promotion to join the corporate team. Her innovative approach and leadership are often noted by those she serves. Katie and her husband, Matt, live with their three kids in Galena.
