Katrina Dudley was introduced to her career through an unusual avenue: her parent's divorce. While they were splitting, Katrina's dad worked with a partner at Ernst & Young to value her family's assets. Interested in the process, she asked her dad to introduce her to that very partner. Despite a lack of full-time positions, Katrina was presented with the opportunity to work for the company part-time in family law valuation and part-time in their tax division.
Now, Katrina is a co-portfolio manager of the Franklin Mutual European Funds and Euroland Fund. As part of the Mutual Series investment team, she follows global industrial companies, including companies involved in transportation, general manufacturing, machinery electrical equipment, global health care services and multi-industries. Katrina also serves as secretary of the Board of Trustees of Inwood House, an organization that helps teens take charge of their lives, and volunteers with the New York Junior League. During her off-the-clock hours, Katrina lives with her husband and four children in New York City.
