Katie is one of the most in demand models and commercial dancers in the industry. A multi-talented and accomplished performer and model, Katie has worked across Stage, TV, Film, Fashion and advertising over the past 13 years - both in front of the camera and behind the scenes.
You have seen her face in major TV commercials and advertising campaigns for iconic brands including Samsung, Qantas, Westfield, Toyota, MasterCard, The Iconic, Priceline, Bonds, Sportsgirl, Westpac, Marley Spoon, Corona, Brown Brothers. She has graced the pages of magazines like Cosmo, Shop Til You Drop, Marie Clare, Elle and appeared in print campaigns for Tree Of Life, Tony and Guy, and Harvey Norman.

Not only is Katie a seasoned pro in front of the camera and on the stage – she has also worked behind the scenes on major fashion shows, as an assistant choreographer and calling the MYER Spring/Summer Fashion show led by Jennifer Hawkins and as the assistant choreographer for Dami Im’s 2016 Eurovision performance.
As a choreographer and movement coach – her work has been featured on The Voice Kids, GQ Awards, television commercials and music videos and large scale corporate events.
Having worked with Marko Panzic for over 12 years – Katie has become his trusted right-hand woman, working alongside him on projects including The Dream Dance Company, Australian Dance Festival, music videos and live tv performances for local and international artists.
In every area of her work, Katie is dedicated and hard working – and in an industry where careers can be fleeting, she has worked hard to carve out a career spanning over 10 years.
In today’s chat, you will get to know the awesome person that Katie is as she shares a little insight into her upbringing and what her life is like now. She is so down to earth and so humble. I’m sure you will fall in love with her as much as I did. Enjoy!
