Kaitlyn Hennie is an actor, storyteller, and emerging creative from Long Island, NY, known for bringing boldness, depth, and authenticity to every role she takes on. Originally a competitive athlete, Kaitlyn’s shift into acting gave her a fierce work ethic and a grounded, physical approach to performance.

She’s committed to breaking away from the industry’s narrow standards—choosing instead to show up as her full, unapologetic self: a Black woman who loves herself, claims her space, and speaks in her own voice. She’s not here to “perform” for tradition—she’s here to live inside the work, proving that complexity, softness, strength, and nuance belong to her just as much as anyone else.

Kaitlyn will graduate in May 2025 with a B.A. in Theatre: Acting/Directing and a minor in Education from Binghamton University. Her training includes The Freeman Studio and Stella Adler Studio of Acting. Her credits include Rosalind in As You Like It, Olga in Three Sisters, and Virtue in Anything Goes.

Outside of acting, Kaitlyn’s an aspiring freelance model and a passionate lover of fashion, film, and music. She’s always searching for new ways to tell stories—whether it’s through performance, style, or the projects she dreams of creating in the future.

Every role is a chance for her to take up space, explore, and leave a mark. Kaitlyn is forging her own path, driven by truth, love, and a commitment to telling stories that matter.
