Hello,
I’m Kat, a New York-based Meisner trained Actor, Voice Over Artist and Dialectician working in Theatre, Film, Commercials and Voice Overs.
Originally from Glasgow, Scotland (although I rarely get the opportunity to use my accent), I began my acting training at Langside College and started my acting career in the incredible Peter Mullan’s (The Magdalene Sisters, Ozark, Top of the Lake) internationally award-winning feature NEDS. NEDS won multiple awards at the Scottish BAFTA’s, San Sebastian Film Festival and debuted in the US at TriBeCa Film Festival before its theatrical release.
I am a proud graduate of the 3-year Conservatory Training program at the American Academy of Dramatic Arts and of the Academy Theatre Company. Since graduating, I have continued to work on my craft with classes at The Freeman Studio, Stephen Ditmyer’s Meisner Intensives, and Ellen Parks’ On Camera while concurrently sharpening my Voice Over skills with Andy Roth, Roger Becker and many others.
I have had the pleasure of originating roles in new pieces of theatre with some of New York’s most exciting theatre companies; The Amoralists, Spicy Witch Productions and Whitelisted Theatre Company to name a few. I have also led classic plays such as Agatha Christie’s Appointment with Death for the Gallery Players Theatre in Brooklyn.
As a Voice Over artist I have voiced projects for Adidas, Booking.com, and Johnnie Walker and many others. Growing up, I have always had a passion for dialects and continue to play, hone my craft and work on projects from my home studio.
As an Actor, I believe in the power of Theatre and its ability to create a little more space in the mind of the audience. I believe that magic happens on stage, which is why I fell in love with acting in the first place. I am a firm advocate for equal rights in all facets, and plan to continue to breathe life into new stories while changing minds and creating my own inclusive pieces of theatre in the near future.
