Kathryn Kohut is a Canadian actress, martial artist and model. She was born in Wetaskiwin, Alberta into a family of pipeline welders. Welding alongside her father in Fort McMurray, she was recruited by EllisDon and grew to have a successful career in the construction industry. Her career as an actress began only recently, as growing up she didn't have access to acting programs and didn't consider it a possibility until she decided to leave the construction industry and follow the pull she felt towards the arts.
Kohut began her training at the Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute in New York, and has since continued her studies with a diverse number of teachers and coaches throughout Canada, USA and the UK. She hit the ground running, with her first role being a supporting lead in Spare Parts (RLJE Films, Amazon Prime) and has continued on an upward trajectory.
Apart from acting, Kohut is an avid horseback rider, and extreme sports enthusiast with a passion for dirt biking, wake boarding, skiing and Muay Thai. In 2014, she won Miss International Canada and placed second runner up out of 85 contestants in Bangkok, Thailand. In 2015, she won Miss International Canada and placed second runner up at Miss Universe Canada in 2017.
Kohut is passionate about supporting causes that are close to her heart which include the Malala Fund, the Canadian Centre to End Human Trafficking and Black Lives Matter. She is also an animal rights advocate and volunteered for animal shelters and organizations growing up.
