With You In Mind Image Management Services grew out of Kathy Wolters' love of helping women look and feel their best. Early in her University of Illinois Extension career she discovered she had a talent and skill for helping women of all sizes and ages look their best. Area agencies sought her talent and abilities to educate their clients on how to dress for success in getting a job. Then as her extension career changed she started her own handcrafted accessory business With You In Mind Handcrafted Accessories. After retirement she expanded her With You In Mind business to include Image Management Services.
Wolters, a certified Image Management Specialist, is an affiliate of the Conselle Institute of Image Management, one of the industry leaders in the field of image management. Through Conselle, she has access to the latest training and educational materials to use with her clients. Kathy has a bachelor’s degree in Family and Consumer Sciences and a master’s degree in education. She worked for the University of Illinois Extension for 26 years.
Wolters collaborates with the Quincy Area Chamber of Commerce on professional dress in-services for their members and authored a series of Dress Up Thursday articles for their newsletter. She currently volunteers her services with the Blessing Hospital Bariatric Support Group, and is a founding member and vice-president of the Expressive Image Therapy Association.
Kathy is a member of The Association of Image Consultants International, the American Association of Family and Consumer Sciences, Quincy Rotary Club, and the Quincy Area Chamber of Commerce. She has been recognized by Quanada with a Hope and Dignity Award, by the Quincy Rotary Club with a Paul Harris Fellow Award, and by the IAFCS as an Outstanding Home Economist.
“I love enabling people to discover and define who they are inside—their values, interests, abilities and personality traits—resulting in their image identity. Then helping them express that identity on the outside through an attractively arranged self-presentation. I empower people to dress congruently and in harmony with their inner selves thus transforming how they look, act and feel about themselves.” — Kathy Wolters Image Management Specialist CEO With You In Mind Image Management Services
