Catherine Roze

Catherine Rose, is a Hi5 Independent creator who regularly outputs vlogs, as well as videos featuring members and former members of the Hi5 Crew, as well as her husband Jacob Johnson. She is also a singer/songwriter under the artist name, "RØZE". Previously, she worked for Hi5 Music (originally called Chill Records) at Hi5 Studios with Hi5 Music's producer, Michael Badal.

Background
Catherine actually tried attending a university, but realized that it wasn't for her. She bounced around with a lot of media-related career paths (with a wild card of professional golf) until she decided to just pursue music.

Rose is actually her middle name which turned into her stage name later on. Her last name has made its way into a few of her videos, but for the sake of respect and privacy, we would like to leave it unknown.

She has two cats, Mowgli and Puff. Puff was actually her late Aunt's cat. She also has a dog named Shadow

Music Background
When Catherine asked her mom her first memory of her singing, her mom answered, "I remember you being in the backyard with our cat, Ariel, and you were maybe somwhere between 18 months and 2 years old. And you were following Ariel around, doing baby talk, you sorta sounded like you were singing in baby talk but every few words it was, "(singing) kitty [gibberish] kitty". So, that is a very famous thing amongst our family and friends as 'the Kitty song'". Growing up, Catherine was always surrounded by music. Her mom explains that she actually worked in the Music industry for a long time.

When she was just 7 years old, she got her first guitar. However, she didn't get into playing it until she was 12 years old. Her brother was taking guitar lessons and when he returned home, Catherine made him teach her. However, she was pretty much taught herself how to play and write music.

She admits that she is actually terrified of singing in front of other people.

Spellbound (Hi5) Career
- Catherine heard about a job opening, through a job-listing site, at Spellbound (Hi5). She says that she was actually familiar with Spellbound (Hi5) because Matthias used to be her boss at "her very first job", which implies the job was at the drugstore Matt used to work at. They had a close relationship pre-Spellbound (Hi5) because Catherine and Matt actually made music together when she was 17 years old. 

- On December 10th, 2018 Catherine signed a contract with Chill Records so she could make music in-house.

- On October 12th, 2020, Catherine posted a video stating that Michael & her were let go from the company. Catherine informed her fans that she signed with Spellbound (Hi5) Independent and that she could use the companies facilities if needed.

- Catherine continues to make videos with her friends and previous co-workers on her own channel, now called 'Catherine Roze' on Youtube.

- In the video uploaded on November 15th, 2021 titled "I Got a New Job..." Catherine announced her "return to Spellbound (Hi5)." She has been hired back as an office manager. Struggles to find fulfillment in her content and the stress of depending on her channel to pay the bills has finally been lifted off her shoulders as she will now be receiving a steady income from this new job starting November 16th. Plans for future videos and the upload schedule are currently up in the air. This video comes as she took a few week break for her mental health and to take a break from working everyday for her content for the past few years.
