Katie Lee - Researcher and Journalist
Katie Lee is a drama graduate from the University of Manchester with a semester at the University of Toronto. She does not want to be an actor.
Her love of culture began at an early age (ballet lessons at age three) and developed through her time at Allerton Grange school and university. Having always wanted to write for print and failing to do so at University, Katie leapt at the chance to assist with 'The Juice'. Fairly easy to please you might find her articles appreciative of most things. Beware of the fase sense of security given by this impression, or you might end up the same way as that awful 'Love Actually"...
