Career
After graduating with a Theater degree from The Richard Stockton College of New Jersey, Katrina's acting education continued on in the big cities of Philadelphia and New York. There she not only deepened her understanding of acting as an art form, but she also sharpened her teeth on the business of acting. In New York City, she earned her S.A.G. eligibility on the set of Numbers with Nora Ephron and John Travolta and finally joined S.A.G. when she booked a Guest Star on NY's "Third Watch". Since then she has gone on to act in many exciting projects including a three episode arc as the Mord'Sith "Garen" in Legend of the Seeker and as the series regular "Mira" in the show Spartacus: Blood and Sand and again in Spartacus: Vengeance.[14]
