Ekaterina "Katia" Dmitriyevna Alexandrovskaya (Russian: Екатерина Дмитриевна Александровская; born 1 January 2000) is a pair skater who competes for Australia. With her skating partner, Harley Windsor, she is the 2017 World Junior champion and 2017 Australian national champion.

Alexandrovskaya was born on 1 January 2000 in Moscow, Russia. Her father died in 2015.

Alexandrovskaya started learning to skate in 2004. After competing as a single skater through 2011–12, she began appearing in pairs with Vladislav Lysoy in the 2012–13 season. She skated with Aleksandr Epifanov in 2014–15 and 2015–16.

Responding to a query from Australian-based coaches Andrei and Galina Pachin, her coach Nina Mozer suggested a tryout between Alexandrovskaya and Harley Windsor, who arrived in Moscow around January 2016. Alexandrovskaya was released by Russia after a request from the Australian skating association, with help from Mozer. The pair is coached by the Pachins in Sydney and by Andrei Hekalo and Nina Mozer in Moscow.

Alexandrovskaya/Windsor's international debut came in early September 2016 at the Junior Grand Prix (JGP) in Ostrava, Czech Republic. Ranked 6th in the short program and 9th in the free skate, the pair finished 8th overall. Later that month, the two competed at a JGP event in Tallinn, Estonia. They were awarded the gold medal ahead of three Russian pairs after placing third in the short and first in the free. They finished as the first substitutes for the JGP Final in Marseille, France.

Alexandrovskaya/Windsor made their senior debut in October 2016 at a Challenger Series event, the Finlandia Trophy; they placed sixth and obtained the minimum technical scores to compete at senior-level ISU Championships. In December, the pair placed 5th in France at the JGP Final, to which they were called up as replacements for Russia's Ekaterina Borisova / Dmitry Sopot. Windsor tore his patella tendon in January 2017. The following month, the pair competed in Gangneung, South Korea at the 2017 Four Continents Championships, finishing 11th.
