She graduated from Arizona State University with a B.A. in Vocal Performance with a focus in German lieder and art songs. After completing her bachelors, Kate became the Resident Teaching Artist for the Arizona Opera where she worked with local school systems to study the stories behind arias and art songs so students could appreciate the music beyond the language barrier. Since moving back to New Hampshire in 2009, Kate has been teaching private voice, piano, and flute lessons. In addition, she has led countless summer masterclasses to prepare students for Jazz and Classical All State Festival auditions that focused on not only the repertoire but also deepening sight-reading skill sets. Currently, Kate sings as a Soprano with the NH Master Chorale and as a hired soloist for church choirs in Nashua, Gilford, and Wolfeboro. In her spare time, Kate enjoys time with her husband, Adam and her two sons, Gavin and Holden. Comments are closed.
