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.
