As a young girl, Christine Fruechte was always drawn to art. But as a student at the University of Minnesota, she found art wasn’t drawn to her.
“I discovered that I didn’t have ‘that gift,'” says Fruechte, 38, who in early January was named president of MDC Partners’ Colle + McVoy in Minneapolis. “After realizing I didn’t have the gift, it gave me the opportunity to pursue other things.”
