Kate as an artist is something of a jack-of-all
trades. She has worked as an actor, singer, dancer, voiceover artist,
writer, director, and teacher. She moved to New York City in 2008
after earning an M.F.A. in Acting from the
University of Florida. She attended UF on a teaching assistantship, which
meant that while she was busy learning the finer points of acting, she was
also teaching budding young protegés what it's all about.
Originally, Kate hails from the Second City
(which will always be first in her eyes)--Chicago! She received her B.A. from the University
of Notre Dame, and while for three years she masqueraded as
a Gator, in truth, she is a Fightin' Irish girl through and through.
Since being in NYC, she has been fortunate
enough to be a very busy gal, and to work with some wonderful people.
Currently, she's an ensemble member of
Adaptive Arts Theatre Company, a company whose mission is to provide
theatre centered around the autistic community. NYC credits include
work with
Boomerang Theatre Company, Boundless Theatre Company, the
NY Fringe
Festival, and
Manhattan Theatre Source, among others.
In the film arena, she has appeared in
PLAZAVILLE, an independent film which was screened both locally and
internationally (at the Cologne Art Fair in Hamburg, Germany), and in
numerous student films for Columbia University and other schools.
Commercially, she is a principal
voiceover artist for Beyonce's clothing line,
Dereón,
and has worked consistently as a web video host and spokeswoman for
companies including Heating Oil USA and the
Hoopis Performance Network. She studies
at One on One Studios.
Kate is a proud member of the
Actors’ Equity
Association, and is SAG and AFTRA eligible. |
