Katie is the daughter of Survivor legend Tina Wessen. Together, they competed on Survivor: Blood vs. Water, against each other as castaways. Katie originally appeared on Survivor: The Australian Outback, in a taped video for a reward Tina received.
Katie was on the Tadhana tribe, where she found herself on the outs initially, as a majority alliance formed without her. She received a vote from Rachel during the first impression vote, and again by Marissa at the first Tribal Council. Marissa herself went home instead. She targeted John at the next two tribal Councils, finally getting her wish when the guy alliance turned on him. She also joined the others in blindsiding Brad. During a tribe swap, she moved to Galang, where she was reuinited with her Mom. Together, they blindsided Kat. Katie made the merge and managed to win the third individual immunity. Her alliance soon found itself in the minority, as Hayden, Caleb, and herself appeared to be sitting ducks. However, during a bold move, they managed to convince Ciera to flip, forcing a 3-3 tie between Hayden and Monica, and since nobody changed their votes, those two became immune and the rest of the players drew rocks. Katie became the second person in Survivor history to draw a purple rock, after Paschal in Season 4 (Marquesas), becoming the first and only woman to do so. She lost her first RI duel and was sent to the jury, where she was voted for Tyson.
While BvW was on the air, Tina鈥檚 son and Katie鈥檚 brother Taylor was killed in a car accident, which was touched upon during the reunion a few weeks after. She and her mother Tina were the first two family members to ever be on the same tribe.
