Our Team

Selena Lauterer

As President of Artemis Independent, Selena has been fully immersed in the world of public broadcasting since 1998. Previous to founding Artemis, she was co-owner of Pogo Promotions, LLC and even further back, headed up the National Promotions Unit at Oregon Public Broadcasting. Go deeper and you’ll find a poet, legal librarian, dedicated rescuer of wandering dogs, and onetime English teacher in just-post velvet revolution Czech Republic. Lauterer happily shares her screen time with a household full of devoted public television viewers, including daughters Olive and Ruthie, and husband extraordinaire, Dr. Kelly Davis. In the hope of avoiding any kind of leisure time whatsoever, Lauterer and Davis also create and produce independent projects through their own production company, HOGWILD FILMS.

Sadie Kneidel

Sadie Kneidel is delighted to manage Station Relations for the Artemis team. It’s no coincidence that she shares initials with Steve Kornacki. While she doesn’t have khakis or a whiteboard, Sadie loves breaking down data for the team and using these insights to steer Artemis’ campaigns.

Sadie enjoys a balance between introverted data crunching and working with others towards a shared goal, and is a passionate advocate for marginalized members of her community. She enjoys writing, gardening, and spending time in the woods of Western North Carolina with her family. When she’s not working, you’ll find her cooking, milking goats, or dancing to Shakira with her kids.

She has previously worked in museum administration and exhibitions management at the Vanderbilt University Fine Arts Gallery and Contemporary Art Museum (CAM) Raleigh.

Krista and her husband, Jordan, live in Holly Springs, NC with their sons, Zack and Henry. She loves any chance to read in a hammock, take in some live music, work on a puzzle, put her sewing machine to work, and travel with her family.

Connie Carringer

Connie joined Artemis in 2019, bringing with her an eclectic background in music, arts, non-profits, counseling, birth work, and small business administration. She has a love affair with spreadsheets and delights in creating efficient and meaningful systems for getting things done. 

She brings a lively sense of humor into everything she does, which is especially handy with raising her two precocious daughters. She spends most of her afternoons and weekends building forts, constructing block castles, and driving her kids to various activities. In her free time Connie likes to sing, dance, play music, host potlucks, get crafty, make her husband laugh, call square dances, and listen to podcasts. Her family lives in her hometown of Apex, NC.

Catherine Potter

Catherine is the newest team member here at Artemis, who has been gifted with the role of researching all of the delightful details that make our reports useful and informative!  She brings with her years of experience data wrangling and report writing as well as a willingness to jump in to any task that may prove to be useful.   She lives in Raleigh with her delightful husband Brian, garrulous daughter Lucy, and four spoiled pets including two rescue dogs, a rescue cat, and a rescued three-legged turtle.  Catherine loves cooking (though she is often the only one brave enough to eat said culinary delights), jogging, and reading.  Her strangest quirk is an obsession with giraffes... but honestly, who can resist a giraffe?
