In2019, Wagner starred as a crime-solving English professor opposite Kristoffer Polaha in the Hallmark Movies & Mysteries original series “Mystery 101”. Because of her family ethic, Wagner has done such films as Hallmark Channel’s “Autumn Dreams”, the highly rated “Christmas Cookies”, “A Harvest Wedding”, “Karen Kingsbury’s Maggie’s Christmas Miracle”, “Pearl in Paradise”, “Christmas in Evergreen: Letters to Santa”, “Christmas Wishes and Mistletoe Kisses”, “Christmas in Evergreen: Tidings of Joy”, and most recently, “The Angel Tree”. When not filming or pursuing new career aspirations, she regularly travels home to North Carolina, where her grandmother continues to be a driving force in her life. Family is very important to Wagner and she regularly chooses family-themed projects based upon her grandmother’s recommendations. She attended North Carolina State University, where she graduated Cum Laude with a degree in Business. After her success on the series, she was asked to host the after-show titled, “Wolf Watch.” Born in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, Wagner and her brother were raised by their grandmother and father, a former U.S.

She also starred in MTV’s hit series “Teen Wolf” as Kate Argent, one of the main antagonists of the show’s first and fourth seasons. On the acting front, Wagner recently appeared in the breakout independent film 'Braven', in which she starred opposite Jason Momoa (“Game of Thrones',”Aquaman'). Wagner spent seven seasons on ABC’s hit reality series “Wipeout,” where she regularly interviewed and encouraged contestants competing on the world’s largest obstacle course. Hosting is nothing new for the beautiful, North Carolina native. Wagner’s enthusiasm and unique style of getting to the heart of the story and personalities behind some of America’s most skilled workers is a big reason why the series has been successful. For three seasons she hosted the INSP TV series “Handcrafted America,” where she traveled the country in search of talented artisans who continue to make sought-after, contemporary products the traditional way –with their own two hands. There are few who’ve been able to successfully transition between acting and hosting duties, but Wagner has broken down barriers with her inherent ability to do both.

Her diverse body of work combined with a rapidly growing fan base has demonstrated her appeal to a broad range of audiences who can easily relate to her approachable wit and down-to-earth personality.
