About

A proud resident of St. John’s, Kate grew up in an intergenerational household, which shaped her early understanding of the challenges faced by seniors in our city. This upbringing also deepened her appreciation for St. John’s unique culture, built heritage, and close-knit communities.

As the youngest elected member of Council, Kate brings a fresh and forward-thinking perspective to municipal governance. She is especially committed to amplifying the voices of young people and ensuring that decision-making at City Hall reflects the diverse needs and experiences of all residents.

In her role as Councillor-at-Large, Kate is focused on building strong relationships with community partners, residents, and City staff to create sustainable, inclusive, and positive change. Her priorities include affordable housing, climate action, accessibility, and improving public engagement in local government.

She holds a Bachelor’s degree in Political Science and Gender Studies from Memorial University, where she was named to the Dean’s List and awarded the Academic Medal of Excellence in recognition of her academic achievements and contributions.
