Board of Governors Representative

Kate is a proud alumna of the Faculty of Nursing (BScN '07) and the School of Business (MBA '15). Since moving to Edmonton to begin her undergraduate studies in 2003, the U of A has been a backdrop to her education, career development, and personal life. She has regularly volunteered with the Alumni Association since 2014.

After obtaining her BScN, Kate practiced in neonatal intensive care, infection control, and liver transplant, and began the part-time MBA program in 2011. She joined KPMG's management consulting practice in 2014, where she works with healthcare organizations to design and execute strategies that align with the best interests of patients, families, and staff.

Kate lives in Edmonton with her husband, Chris (BCom '06, LLB '09), whom she met at the U of A. She enjoys travelling, exploring the river valley by bicycle, and taking advantage of Edmonton's fantastic food scene.
