About Your Instructors:
Katie Overbey (she/her) began her improv journey in 2018 under the guise of professional development as part of a class in grad school. She fell in love with the way improv could turn a group of science nerds into funny, cohesive performers and she’s been hooked ever since. Katie has performed with various groups, including Babeprov in Baltimore and Game Knights at The Armory in NYC. She considers Highwire Improv her home base and when she’s not doing improv, she’s working as a food ingredient regulator, knitting, or snuggling her pets.
Second instructor to be announced soon!
