Hi. I’m Katie.
I’m a Chicago based actor, improviser, impressionist, voice over artist, and lovable imp. I graduated from Northwestern University with a B.A. in Acting and a certificate in Theatre For Young Audiences. I also studied Shakespearean performance at the British American Drama Academy. And, for longer than my liver and I ever could have imagined, people paid to see me get drunk onstage.
I am an original ensemble member of Chicago’s Drunk Shakespeare, the reigning Chief Pizza Officer at Topper’s Pizza, and Metro by T-Mobile’s expert on Nada Yada Yada. I am represented by Big Mouth Talent. Most recently I originated the role of Sister Clarence in the world premiere of Happy Days Are Here (Again) at Steep Theatre, one of the Chicago Tribune’s Top 10 Chicago Theatre Productions of 2024, and conspired alongside The Back Room Shakespeare Project in their pre-election Julius Caesar (bold, bold move).
Interests include playing Dungeons and Dragons, long walks through the cemetery, thrifting odds and ends, Stanley Tucci (the actor and my cat), not wearing pants, and informing people of my excellent Moaning Myrtle impression before saying, “I’m not gonna do it for you now, but I swear it’s good.”
Follow me, if you dare:
