about

Katie is an actor, singer, and dancer based in New York City. Originally from Issaquah, WA just outside Seattle, Katie grew up working consistently in Seattle’s professional theatre scene and danced competitively before joining MK Ballet Company under the direction of former Tokyo Ballet soloist, Michiko Black. She also trained in commercial dance at Westlake Dance Center with Daniel Cruz of Cruz Control and Kirsten Cooper.

She earned her BFA in Musical Theatre from Penn State University and has since performed Off-Broadway in the revival of Seesaw and regionally around the country at theaters like The Muny, Pittsburgh CLO, Music Theatre Wichita, 5th Avenue, North Shore Music Theatre, Cape Playhouse, McCarter Theatre Center, and more. She has been lucky enough to be part of several new works, starring as Sweetie in the world premiere of The Tutor, Sheila Nail in Joe Iconis’ Love In Hate Nation, and Mercy Rider in ZM written by the Tony-winning writers of Urinetown, Greg Kotis and Mark Hollman.

When she is not performing, you can find her teaching dance, playing piano, choreographing, and quoting the 2003 School of Rock film with shocking precision.
