Annie Kate, Multimedia Journalist

Annie Kate started as a multimedia journalist at ABC57 News in July 2022.
Before that, she worked in a similar role at WMBD-TV in Peoria, IL. She attended Loyola University Chicago and graduated with honors in 2020.
While there, she led the relaunch of Her Campus LUC, helped found the Theta Upsilon chapter of Kappa Delta sorority, and had her reporting featured in the Gender and Power issue of Mosaic Magazine. She also spent a semester abroad at LUC's Vietnam Center, where she tutored disabled adults in English skills.
In 2019, Annie was part of a team that traveled to Tuvalu, the world's least visited country. There, the Loyola filmmakers mentored Tuvalu youth, facilitating the process of shooting a documentary.
Back in the states, the team secured distribution of the film, "We Are Tuvalu," in over 50 countries, including the United States. Annie currently serves as a "one-man-band" reporter for the station, covering news of the day across Michiana. Annie has a passion for telling local, community stories, and covers topics like mental health, housing, crime, law enforcement, local government, and much more.
Annie also serves as a fill-in anchor and producer for the station.
