Katherine Rees
Katie trained as a contemporary dancer and gained a bachelor in Performing Arts: Dance from the Northern School of Contemporary Dance. She has worked in various roles within arts management (The Place, Edinburgh Fringe Festival and Creative Lives) and dance education (Rambert, Royal Academy of Dance). More recently, she has lectured and assessed in higher education working for the Royal Academy of Dance, Trinity College London and London College of Fashion. In 2016 she was awarded the London College of Fashion and Studio Wayne McGregor Ph.D. award. Her research focused on the use of digital touch as stimuli for the dance-making process, which led to the creation and use of three body-worn prototypes within two projects with student dancers and professional choreographers. Katie is currently working at UCA as a lecturer in creative technology.
