Primerus™ Weekly - 15 May 2023 - Attorney Spotlight: Katie Bundyra
New Senior VP and Manager of Member Services strives to offer firms growth opportunities
The union of a law degree with a penchant for hospitality and service makes Katie Bundyra ideal for her new job.

Recently named Senior Vice President of Services at Primerus™, Bundyra embodies a host of traits that make the position a natural fit.

“My job, first and foremost, is to make sure members remain happy with their membership,” says Bundyra, “which requires identifying what their needs and expectations are and providing them the necessary opportunities to meet those conditions, all while making sure they’re utilizing the options provided to them.”

Born and raised near Grand Rapids, Michigan, Bundyra’s childhood was full of sports and the outdoors. Her early love was basketball, until she “stopped growing,” after which she pursued more “height-appropriate” activities. While she still participated in group and individual sports, she shifted her focus to other extracurriculars including musical theater, student government, and serving a two-year term as a student representative on the Board of Education in her school district. 

Bundyra knew as a young teen that she wanted a career she found meaningful and that involved service in some way. Initially, she thought she might find her calling in politics. So, after high school, she attended DePaul University in Chicago with plans to earn a degree in political science. While she loved the school and the city, Bundyra says after a few years she simply missed her family and friends too much.

Community Service
A devotion to community service can produce long term dividends

Community service.

Two words that serve as the sixth pillar of Primerus™, forever symbolizing an abiding commitment to put service above self.

Or as Winston Churchill once said, “We make a living by what we get, but we make a life by what we give.”

In large measure, Churchill’s words define the importance of community service in leading a well-rounded life, one built upon a desire to help others for the betterment of society.
