She gained both the RCVS Diploma in anaesthesia and the European College of Veterinary Anaesthesia & Analgesia Diploma and has since re-accredited twice. Following this she worked for 10 years as a self-employed consultant in referral practices, pharmaceutical companies, academia, zoos and biomedical research establishments providing anaesthesia services. In 2009 she joined the School of Veterinary Medicine and Science and became Professor of Veterinary Anaesthesia and Analgesia in 2015 and the Clinical Director of the school. She is currently also head of the Division of Clinical Sciences.

She is past president (2014-2016) of the worldwide Association of Veterinary Anaesthetists (AVA)

Kate teaches and assesses physiology, pharmacology, anaesthesia, analgesia, drug legislation, laboratory animal welfare and legislation and safety culture across the curriculum. Kate has played a significant role in the development of the innovative undergraduate curriculum at the Nottingham University's School of Veterinary Medicine and Science (SVMS). For example, ensuring vertical integration of anaesthesia and analgesia across all species and across the many system-based modules, delivering impact and predictive validity of clinical assessments in the early years but also in a workplace-based environment in year 5. She developed a number of areas of the curriculum primarily anaesthesia, pain assessment and analgesia but also renal, cardiac and neurophysiology CPR, human factors and error. Kate's teaching spans all six years of the curriculum (prelim year 0 to year 5) embedded in almost every module and covering a number of different innovative formats including interactive lectures, clinically relevant practicals, small group seminars, flipped classroom formats, Xerte interactive cases, Twitter revision, Kahoot quizzes, and group learning in simulation scenarios. This variety of teaching methods ensure learning flexibility, engagement and connectedness.
