Kate has over 20 years of experience in management consulting and marketing, leaving her role as a VP at TBWA in 2019 to finally embrace the flexibility and demands of being her own boss full-time (or at least being second-in-command to her 7-year-old son). She is a three-time Tony nominee, an Olivier nominee, and an Evening Standard winner.
Kate is a proud graduate of the University of Southern California School of Dramatic Arts (spending time in London at BADA), and has a Master’s Degree in Producing and General Management from the Columbia University School of the Arts. She serves on the USC School of Dramatic Arts Alumni Leadership Council and is the recipient of She Runs It’s 2019 Working Mother Of the Year Award.
