Swinging on monkey bars wasn’t enough of a challenge for Catherine, so she decided to try flying on a trapeze instead. She took her first trapeze class at Circus Juventas in Minnesota, and continued to train and perform with them for 13 years. During that time she was an aerialist and high wire walker in their smash hits such as Wonderland, Steam, Twisted, and more. After getting her BA in theatre arts from the University of Minnesota, she moved out to Philadelphia to attend Circadium School of Contemporary Circus. In between classes she’s performed with Airplay Entertainment, American Tightwire, and Alterra Productions.
When Catherine’s not hanging upside down, she enjoys reading while drinking hot chocolate.
