Kat Edison

Kat Edison runs social media at Scarlet magazine, and she runs it like she runs everything else: loudly, confidently, with an opinion ready before anyone's finished asking the question. She's climbing fast, she knows it, and she treats her two best friends at the magazine like family. She wants influence, and she wants it on her own terms.

Aisha Dee plays Kat's swagger as real rather than performed, which makes the moments it cracks land harder. The show lets her be brash and unfinished at once, using her workplace confidence as a counterweight to the messier, more tentative process of figuring out who she loves and who she is.
