Kylie is an actor based in Auckland who spent nearly 20 years living, training, and working in London and Sydney. Her performance highlights include the Edinburgh Festival, Love Actually, as well as presenting at The Cannes Film Festival and hosting travel shows in Egypt and Turkey.

Since returning to New Zealand and having three (or maybe three hundred?) children, her passion for acting has only grown. Notable roles include Shortland Street, The Brokenwood Mysteries, and M3GAN 2.0. Kylie brings warmth, humor, and depth to every project she takes on.

When she’s not acting, you’ll often find her riding horses or balancing on a surfboard, grinning from ear to ear!
