Katherine (Kate) Scott
Kate recently completed a degree in Interdisciplinary Health Sciences at the University of Ottawa and is working as an assistant at the government offices of Statistics Canada. The 22-year-old plans to continue with her studies by specialising in alternative/complementary medicine and obtain a doctorate in Naturopathic Medicine. Eventually she would like to open a private practice offering an interdisciplinary approach to achieving and maintaining health. Through her work as a dance teacher she supports many charitable organizations, and hopes that her work in the community will teach her dancers how important it is to give something back. She has been Irish dancing for fourteen years and playing the harp since the age of seven. Kate has won awards for dancing, harp and voice, and was awarded the title best young composer for a piece she wrote commemorating the events of 11th September 2001. She can trace her Irish heritage back to her great great grandmother who was from Corkstown in Co Tyrone.
Since participating in Tralee this August, Kate has been accepted to Medical School and is thrilled to be one step closer to her goal of opening a private practice.
