Kate Szekely is an actor, producer and writer based in Orlando, FL. Originally from Detroit, her formative years were spent with her family — an eclectic blend of Polish farmers and Hungarian gypsies. Blending the work ethic of the Poles and the passion of the Gypsies, Kate moved to New York City two weeks after turning 18 to pursue a career in the arts, and has never looked back.
A classically-trained actor, Kate holds a BFA in Theatre with Honors from NYU Tisch and the Stella Adler Studio of Acting. She is also an independent producer, working for companies like Infinite Variety Productions (a New York based non-profit theatre company) and a/b studios (Knoxville production house).
In her spare time, Kate trains in Brazilian jiu-jitsu; practices yoga + meditation (she holds an 800+ hour Jivamukti yoga certification); cooks like a fiend; has been known to eat her way through a travel destination; and can usually be found hiking a trail somewhere.
