Explore St. Louis names Emmy-Winner Cat Neville as VP of Communications Tuesday February 22, 2022 By Patrick ST. LOUIS – Emmy-Winner Cat Neville is joining the Explore St. Louis team as their Vice President of Communications on March 14, 2022. In this capacity, Neville will guide Explore St. Louis’ media relations and communications activities in collaboration with their marketing, sales and operations teams.

Explore St. Louis plays a vital role in promoting the St. Louis area and supporting the region’s economic growth — I am honored to join this organization and be part of its effort to give St. Louis the spotlight it deserves.” Share
