Kat Karamitros is a 27-year-old United States Marine Corps Veteran, professional musician, and

part time actress. When she’s not performing shows or playing in concerts, Kat enjoys Spartan

Racing, rollerblading, cooking, and writing. She describes writing as her first love, a passion she maintains alongside service to country.When Crossing the Street is inspired by Kat’s childhood memory, where she recalls she and her

uncle composing an outlandish list of characters, vehicles, and creatures to spy on the street.

Only when her imagination had been fully satisfied, would she cross the street and walk to the park near her home. Kat originally wrote

When Crossing the Street at age 12, for the uncle whose creative mind sparked her own.

Kat is a native of Cedar Rapids, Iowa and currently resides in South Carolina with her little dog, Danny Boy.
