Kate was very fortunate to have grown up in the Entertainment Industry with both parents working in the arts all of their lives. Her father as the Programming Director for Theatre Corporate New Zealand, The Sydney Festival of Arts and The Adelaide Festival Centre and her mother as a professional Actor, Drama Teacher (SA Casting)  and Theatre Director.

It was a natural progression for Kate to follow in the footsteps of her parents in such a vibrant,  exciting and progressive industry. Over the years Kate became involved  in  Television & Radio Media, Event Management, Promotions, Artist Development and fulltime professional singer in a number of musical outfits.

Kate has also worked with and mentored many local emerging performers by conducting workshops, weekend retreats and master-classes that involved a selection of Kate’s professional peers who were more than happy to pass on their varying expertise and knowledge to these aspiring artists. These artists gained invaluable live experience and paid professional gigs at Kate’s own Cabaret venue ‘Cabaret Cafe’, of which many are now employed full time in the Music Industry.

After selling Cabaret Cafe, Kate devoted her full focus back to her ‘Promotions/Events Management’ business, and is relishing being back on the stage performing full time alongside Antonio Villano, in their versatile duo ‘Vogue’.

Over the last 20 years Kate has earned great respect from Industry Leaders and has built a solid reputation through her professionalism, passion and meticulous attention to detail with every event or project that she is involved in.
