About

Born in Salem, Oregon,   Jazi Kat    is a  US-based   producer,    performer, and filmmaker    currently residing in   Utah. She has been performing most of her life and has been active under the stage name "Jazi"/"Jazi Kat"   since 2016.  She seeks to bring   wild,   fun and engaging    performances   blending   various styles  wherever the opportunity arises. 

Her platform focuses on fostering  positivity   towards creators of   all types  and   empowering   each and every individual to live with confidence and   follow their dreams. The world is a brutal place, so let's all   uplift    each other to do our best! 
​
Jazi is an experienced   cosplayer and costume designer. She has been active in the online cosplay community   since 2013    and frequents   "geek" events   such as pop culture and anime conventions like Salt Lake FanX and Anime Banzai. She   designs    and constructs most of her own performance costumes as well as recreating full   character   looks from franchises such as Animal Crossing, Love Live, Star Trek, and more. Jazi also creates many   original   characters and creates looks for those as well. 

Jazi Kat is active on various online platforms, especially   YouTube   and   Instagram, as an internet personality. She creates lifestyle, makeup, and vlog videos on her   main channel    along with her   original music. She also has a   cover channel  where you can find both reuploads   from the archives     (previously hosted on the main channel that is now focused on original content) and   new covers. She frequently sings in both   English  and   Japanese, and is working on learning other languages as well.

She has had    14 years  of professional   dance    training and continues to work on her dance skills to create   choreography   in a variety of styles. She has choreographed for her own work as well as a few different   performing groups    she has been involved with. She also holds a   BA in Film & Media Arts    with emphases in Film Production and Game Design. 

​Jazi is currently the   leader    of alt pop group   LaQna   and a   member   of the  CY8ER   cover project   CY8ER:Link. She regularly appears at events alongside the group   Weeb Streets, a group that primarily appears with a   street performance  setup at events.   Weeb Streets  focuses on J-pop, K-pop, and anisong music.

notable education/training
- I have a BA in Film & Media Arts with emphases in film production and game design. I specialize in sound and editing. I graduated in May 2020. 

- I had 14+ years of consistent dance training in ballet, jazz, hip hop, contemporary, lyrical, and more from 2001-2015. I still occasionally take classes, though not as consistently as I used to when I was attending class 3-5 days a week. 

- In high school, I had a private vocal coach with an emphasis on musical theatre performance. This benefitted my extensive work in theatre around the same time.
