Born in Canada, Tate began commercial modeling with FORD as a child and fell in love with acting in children's theatre. A self-professed bookworm, she fused her artistry with her social activism early on, all the while excelling at competitive cheerleading, dance, and long-distance running. She graduated with an Honors Bachelor of Arts degree from the University of Western Ontario before studying at the prestigious Lee Strasberg Theatre and Film Institute in New York City, completing their Two Year Conservatory Program, where she was the recipient of the Vincent D'Onofrio Scholarship Award.

Beginning to work professionally in New York, Tate frequents both the stage and screen.

Tate recently completed work on the new limited mini-series "Dying For Sex" (Disney/FX), starring Michelle Williams, Jenny Slate and Sissy Spacek, based on the hit podcast of the same name, where she doubled, performed stunt and intimate/nude work as Molly/Michelle Williams in addition to two co-star roles, in episodes one and four, portraying the Naked Woman and an Emergency Room Nurse respectively. She is currently working on Netflix's miniseries "Sirens" (LuckyChap) from showrunner Molly Smith Metzler ("Maid"), working alongside Julianne Moore, Kevin Bacon and Milly Alcock.
