Katie was a castaway from Survivor: Philippines and was a member of the Kalabaw tribe. She was initially on board with Jeff Kent’s plan on voting out the returning players. This changed when Katie noticed Penner talking to both Carter and Jeff and suspected they had an all-male alliance going. Angry at this prospect, she formed an all-girl alliance with Dawson and Dana. Fortunately for Katie, Kalabaw won the first four immunity challenges along with Tandang, preventing them from going to Tribal Council. Matsing was dissolved and Kalabaw received Denise as a new tribe mate. But on Day 12, Katie lost one of her closest ally when Dana quit the game, unable to fight through her illness. Dana leaving disrupted the momentum of the Kalabaw tribe, and when they lost their first immunity challenge, the men and Denise blamed both Katie and Dawson with the loss. Despite being her closest ally, Katie joined the others in unanimously voting out Dawson. Unfortunately, their losing streak continued as Kalabaw lost the next immunity challenge. She hoped the others would still be on board with voting out Penner, since he was a returning player. Unable to convince her tribe mates, Katie was unanimously voted out on Day 16 in a 4-1 vote, placing 12th. Katie is the first castaway from the state of Delaware. She is now married (going by Katie Chase) and had a baby boy born 2 years ago in October 2014. Previously, Katie gave birth to Tengaged user HowLovely. Her husband and her are currently expecting another son, as Katie is currently pregnant. She is the former Miss Delaware. She feels like Jeff Probst “had it out for her”, always bringing up when she was doing poorly in challenges to "warp" her tribemate's opinion about her.
