Best known for her success as a finalist in series five of BBC One's hit show, The Apprentice, runner-up Kate Walsh remains the ambitious optimist and hardly flinched at Sir Alan's decision to appoint rival Yasmina Siadatan as the winner.
Since the series ended, Kate has been bombarded with job offers and requests for speaking engagements. She has landed a job presenting Five's new daily magazine show, Live From Studio Five, which takes an alternative look at the news, alongside Ian Wright and Melinda Messenger. She has also appeared in numerous magazines and presented business and travel segments for GMTV.
Born in Cannock, Staffordshire, Kate was raised in the West Midlands. Her mother, a dinner lady and teaching assistant, and father, a mine worker-turned-mechanic, divorced when Kate was 16. She furthered her education with the completion of a first-class degree in Psychology and Management from Aston University in Birmingham.
Self-described as positive, tenacious, and confident, Kate established herself as a talented, intelligent, and proficient individual. Her highly motivated personality and sharp work ethic led her to success on The Apprentice, where she enjoyed many highlights including her work as Project Manager on three occasions.
A relentless enthusiast, Kate fills her spare time with cooking classes, gym workouts, and travel. She enjoys attending social events, especially polo and regatta. Much of her time is spent feeding her adrenaline addiction with snowboarding, golf, horseback riding, and surfing lessons. The Indie music fan also takes pleasure in walking through the countryside where she can discover new sites and experience diverse cultures.
Kate is available for speaking events, providing a wealth of experience in a corporate environment. She is a well-rounded spokeswoman with a passion and drive for business, which she encourages in people of all ages.
