A seasoned artist sculpting harmonies for over two decades. My musical odyssey began with six years of formal piano training, evolving into a singing journey that kicked off at the tender age of seven within the welcoming walls of my childhood church. At 21, I entered the world of recording, becoming an internationally distributed recording artist. With a wealth of studio recordings and live performances, I've fine-tuned the art of creating musical magic. Join me in unraveling the symphony of sounds that have defined my melodious sojourn!

Welcome to my vocal studio! I am a Seattle-based singer and voice teacher currently accepting new students of all levels. Have you been singing in choirs for years and have vocal fatigue after rehearsals and/or performances? Maybe you have issues navigating through register breaks? Are struggling with expanding your range? Or perhaps you love to sing but have stage fright? Afraid of performing in front of others but are drawn to the stage? Are you shy/introverted but feel the need to express yourself musically? Me too! I absolutely empathize with all of these feelings, and would love to help you work through this through song. Music is healing. It is nurturing. It is necessary. And it is these sensitivities, our vulnerabilities, that connect us to music, which allows us to fully express who we truly are. No matter where you are in your musical journey, I would be happy to work with you! I work with each student individually and address their own specific needs. We are all unique and learn/absorb new information differently, and it is a welcomed and creative challenge for me to figure out with my students what personally works for them. I would like to share the tremendous knowledge I’ve gleaned from my esteemed instructors with you and help you to become a better, healthier and happier singer! This technique works for any singing style to assist you in keeping the voice fresh and healthy for many years. My lessons address breath support, proper alignment, personal expression and more. I have a sensitive, positive teaching style and I will work with you very patiently and supportively. I have found so much joy from free, healthy singing and it is my goal to help you experience this same joy in your musical journey.

"I joined a choir, and I could never have participated in that choir without Stefanie's guidance and support. I will be forever grateful to Stefanie for her help in opening the door to singing with other people.

I’m playing tennis for 19 years. 8 years coaching experience. Sometimes still participate in tournaments by myself. I provide advanced tennis lessons, as well as explanation how to enjoy the game and stay healthy.

"The lesson with Katya was quite good. She was very patient with my son, who’s still new to tennis and had never held a racket before. She set clear goals that helped him feel at ease, and surprisingly, he started to follow her directions pretty well. Still, it was encouraging to see his comfort grow so quickly. If you're considering trying a lesson, Katya might be worth a shot.
