Kathleen was born and raised in Southern California. She was educated at California State University, Long Beach where she studied Speech and Communications. As the entertainment industry was her primary interest she joined KDOC TV56 as an Account Executive focused on commercial and paid programming. After several years at KDOC her love for children's programming motivated her to migrate into the animation industry where she initially worked in post-production sound for Screenmusic. In 1997 Warner Bros. recruited Kathleen to provide production management for films such as Iron Giant, Osmosis Jones and ultimately producer of creature visual effects on "Scooby Doo, the Movie". While at WarnerBros. she also produced commercials for Century 21, Pebbles Cereal, Burger King and CNN. She was the Associate Producer on Scholastic's film "Clifford's Really Big Movie", and in 2006 completed work on the feature "Curious George".
Kathleen has lent her voice to the Machinima hit "Red vs Blue" as the character "Tex" since her introduction to the series in 2003. In 2011 she was asked to Produce Season 10 of RedvsBlue and as a result she was nominated for a "Producer Guild Award" in 2013.
She enjoys interacting with the fans via the Internet as well as pop culture conventions the cast attends. Being a positive role model for kids is extremely important to her, and one of her goals is to give motivational talks to Junior High and High School students.
She started a "Good Deed" program on the RedvsBlue site, inspiring the members to take the time to do unsolicited acts of kindness. Her collection of these good deeds goes well into the thousands.
