Katie is an imaginative and quirky girl who enjoys filming shorts for her YouTube channel. She is socially awkward, but friendly and outgoing.

Sexuality
Katie is Sony Animation's first LGBTQ+ protagonist as well as the first open sapphic protagonist in a big studio family film. While it's never outright said she is sapphic until the end of the movie, there are plenty of hints throughout. She talks a lot about Jade, draws her a lot in her notebooks, considers filmmaker Celine Sciamma one of her heroes, and wears a LGBTQ flag pin on her jacket.

At the end of the movie, her sexuality is made clear by Linda as she asks if her and Jade are "official" and if she'll be bringing her home for Thanksgiving. In Dog Cop 7: The Final Chapter, Katie and Jade become official.

All her family members appear to be extremely supportive of this and treat it very naturally.

Trivia

 * Her voice actress, Abbi Jacobson is also a member of the LGBTQ community. Katie is openly gay while Jacobson is bisexual.
 * In Katie's college acceptance video, she shows that her biggest influences are directors Greta Gerwig, Lynne Ramsay, Hal Ashby, and Celine Sciamma. Sciamma is a pretty subtle hint at the fact that Katie is a lesbian, considering that Sciamma's films are about sexual identities, particularly in girls.
