She has always had an interest in art and especially paintings, being drawn to the world that are created in the area of the canvas.
At university Kate majored in photography, earning a Bachelor of Fine Arts in 2003. In the years since, she built up a career as a graphic designer and illustrator in a number of advertising agencies across Sydney and Brisbane.
After moving to Brisbane in 2010 she soon began pursing her love of painting in conjunction with her father's art studio, culminating in a joint exhibition with him in 2014.
