Kate Macer

Katherine Emily Macer was born and raised in Washington, DC. Her father, Oliver, was a prosecutor. Her mother, Leah, was a high school music teacher. After Kate graduated from high school, she went on to American University. She graduated from AU summa cum laude with a Bachelor of Arts in Justice and Law. Kate then applied to join the Metropolitan Police Department of the District of Columbia. After completing the entire application process, she went on to the Metropolitan Police Academy. Upon graduating from the Police Academy, Kate was assigned as a patrol officer to the Second District Station. Two years into her career as a police officer, she applied to join the Emergency Response Team.

After completing the selection process and basic training course, Kate was assigned to the Emergency Response Team as an entry team member. She eventually rose to the position of entry team leader. Soon after, Kate applied to join the Federal Bureau of Investigation. Before she could join the Bureau, she had to go through the FBI application and hiring process, which included a physical fitness test, a background investigation, and a medical examination. After successful completion of the hiring process, Kate left the MPDC after eight years of service and went on to attend the FBI Academy in Quantico, Virginia. Upon graduating from the Academy, she was sworn in as a Special Agent and assigned to the Phoenix Field Office. Due to her tactical experience, Kate was immediately assigned to the Kidnap Response Team.

Shortly after reporting to the Phoenix Field Office, she began dating a fellow FBI agent named Evan Sheridan. A little over a year after joining the Kidnap Response Team, Kate became the team leader. Soon after, her and Evan married. A couple of years later, Kate and Evan legally separated and filed for divorce. Less than a year later, their divorce was finalized. A few months, later, Kate led a raid of a hideout occupied by suspected Mexican drug cartel kidnappers in Chandler, Arizona. During the raid, the Kidnap Response Team discovered dozens of corpses. In the aftermath, Kate joined an inter-agency anti-cartel task force ostensibly assembled by the U.S. Department of Defense.
