Kate is a trained improviser, scientist, science presenter and pre-service teacher from Perth, having previously lived in both Canberra and Sydney.
Kate did her undergraduate degree and graduate diploma at the University of Western Australia, before working abroad at a nature camp in the USA. On her return to Australia, she moved to the east coast to take up a Masters in Science Communication Outreach (aka the Science Circus). She worked as a science presenter for a number of years, before recently returning to Western Australia and further education. Kate trained in improv at Improv Theatre Sydney, prior to returning to Perth, as well as in musical improv at iO Chicago in 2019.
Kate started playing DnD in early 2020, which leaves a lot of her friends wondering how she didn't get involved sooner.
As well as Dungeons and Doctorates, Kate can also be found talking all things science and creative on podcasts like Non-Peer Reviewed and The Cinema Catch-Up Club. She loves sharing the stage and characters with anyone and everyone, and in her spare time (whatever that is), also runs trivia nights and other events in Perth.
