After a small stint watering banana and pineapple plants in Hawaii, Kate decided to go to Loyola Marymount University in Los Angeles, where she made more puppets and received a B.A. in Studio Art. Since 2008 she has resided in Los Angeles, where she has a steady gig building sandcastles. She also works as an actor and can be found around town playing the ukulele.
