Katie was born and raised in Littleton, Colorado, where she began her professional career performing throughout the Denver area. Dance was her first love, but she later pivoted to acting, graduating with honors from Carnegie Mellon University with a BFA in Acting.
Now based in New York City, Katie has performed with The Public Theater (All’s Well That Ends Well, directed by Daniel Sullivan), Irondale (1599, a five-hour production featuring all of Shakespeare’s plays written in that year, performed by a cast of six), Esperance Theatre Company (Breitwisch Farm, directed by MTCA’s very own, Ryan Quinn), Roundabout Theatre Company, and others.
Regionally, she has appeared across the country with companies including Pioneer Theatre Company (An Inspector Calls), Shakespeare Theatre of New Jersey (Henry VIII), Shakespeare on the Sound (As You Like It, The Two Gentlemen of Verona, Twelfth Night, All’s Well That Ends Well), and the Denver Center for the Performing Arts, where she performed in multiple dance productions.
Katie began her teaching career as a dance instructor, specializing in tap, jazz, and musical theatre. She now focuses on acting, coaching monologues for prospective college students with MTCA and leading Shakespeare workshops for young artists. She is grateful to have trained with exceptional teachers, coaches, and mentors, and takes great pride in passing that knowledge on to the next generation of artists.
