Born in Terrace B.C. but raised in the Vancouver area, Cathy loved performing from a young age. Her love of music was nurtured in many choirs, festivals, and school programs, and by high school she knew that being in the Arts was her path in life. She attended Douglas College Theatre program, and upon graduation landed her first contract in dinner theatre where she honed her comedy, dancing, and singing skills. Ten years later, she decided that it was time to get back into theatre in Vancouver and she hasn't stopped since.
In 2014 Cathy went back to finish her Bachelors with the ultimate goal of teaching theatre at the University level. In 2017 she completed an MFA in Musical Theatre with an emphasis in vocal pedagogy at The Boston Conservatory. She has performed in various musicals and plays and has worked in almost every other job theatre has to offer - Cathy is truly an interdisciplinary artist. She has helped devise pieces for The Vancouver Fringe Festival, The Revolver Festival, and the International PuSh Festival. Cathy has performed all over the lower mainland, in the United States, and in 2018 she performed in London, England with a concert celebrating Canadian Musicals.
