Katrine started in post-production 25 years ago and then moved to an agency where she first worked as an assistant but quickly became a junior agent. Under the guidance of her mentor, she started building her own roster and continued learning the quirks of the industry and then, almost 18 years ago, she opened her own company. Having studied in production, dabbled in radio and then worked in animation, dubbing and other spheres of post-production – becoming an agent seemed like the perfect way to unite all those realities. And she wanted to do it in both languages!
Guiding actors to craft their career path, to learn the business of acting and to present their best self is all part of what she loves.
She truly feels that this career chose her as much as she chose it !

Follow your Bliss. What turns you on. What makes you and your body feel alive and empowered! Start noticing what and who sucks that from you in your life. Is it too many screens? People who don’t encourage and truly unconditionally support you….. Notice. Become aware and make a new choice.
Like nature, we, our bodies, the industry, life, is ALWAYS changing. So nothing, not even the slow times or hard times will stay the same, they are sure to change, just as the seasons do. So in the meantime, why not make choices that uplift and empower you?
Two quotes from two beloved acting coaches: Warren Robertson used to say," if it ain’t fun….RUN!” and a coach from Women In The Director’s chair at the Banff School Of Fine Art’s, I hold dear every day: "There will always be a role with your name on it.”
"So, why not be you? Everyone else is taken" from Oscar Wilde.Felicia is passionate about moving and telling stories; that started at the ripe old age of three when she saw her first play and became hooked. By the age of six she began studying and performing on stage. Born and raised in Montreal with the spirit of a gypsy, she left her home at seventeen and has studied, traveled, lived and worked all over Canada, the U.S., the Middle East, the Caribbean and Europe. Felicia's mom wanted her to be a lawyer. Felicia's dad wanted her to be a nightclub singer. Felicia's passion for the arts won out. She left her pre-law studies part way through university and never looked back. Despite her appetite for travel and adventure, Felicia surprised herself by returning to her hometown in 2000; where she now enjoys performing in English and French in film, television, and her first love, theatre and musical theatre. She also lends her voice to countless T.V. and radio adds, narration, video games and cartoons. When Felicia's not moving people with her performances she moves them with her body, as a certified personal trainer, aqua fit, aqua yoga, yoga, Nia black belt and groove facilitator.

Despite a classical music influence at home, it is her rebellious side that will push Elyzabeth towards rock music when she sees Pat Benatar’s first video on MTV during a trip to New York where mother was singing at the Metropolitan Opera. She later discovers that she has this in common with the singer as she, also, had a singer mom.

In 2014, after attending one of the shows, Mister Gilles Beaulieu of Chrysalide Productions joins the QoR team as co-producer and promoter of the show and already envisions the exportation of Queens of Rock to Las Vegas.
In 2020, Elyzabeth takes the stage of La Voix 8 and impresses the coaches while driving the crowd wild as she interprets her electifying rendition of Heart's Crazy on You.
QUEENS OF ROCK is presently holding a residency at THE MOSAIC ON THE STRIP IN LAS VEGAS.
