Stephanie is the Executive Director of Exceptional Choral Events and Artistic Director for Spectrum Choral Academy. She has extensive experience and training as a choir director of children and youth ages 5 to 20. She is also a trained Music Together® instructor (early childhood music program for newborns through age 5). She has proven herself a creative and inspirational teacher and choral conductor, with her students frequently becoming section leaders of their school choirs, participating in honor choirs, holding lead roles in musicals and going on to major in Music Education, Music Performance and Theater Arts in college. Stephanie has a passion for both directing choirs and developing choir-related programs.
Stephanie began studying piano and singing in choirs at the age of 3 and now has 25 years teaching experience. She is a 2002 graduate of Pacific Lutheran University with a Bachelor of Music degree in piano performance. She was the Founding Artistic Director of Cappella Choirs in Port Orchard, WA and served in that position for 10 years, from 1998 through 2008.

Stephanie maintained an active studio private piano and voice students from 1992-2012.
In 2007, Stephanie had thyroid surgery which inadvertently resulted in paralysis of her left vocal cord. An additional surgery was done to insert a prosthesis, allowing the paralyzed vocal cord to still function. Stephanie's voice continues to strengthen and she is excited to continue her work of inspiring young singers through music.
In addition to her work with choirs, Stephanie is studying Waldorf education and Dalcroze Eurhythmics while developing a unique, hands-on music theory program which is part of Spectrum Choral Academy.

Together, they coordinate the Fort Worden Children's Choir Festival, Youth Choir Festival Northwest and Northwest Choir Camps. They live in Port Orchard, WA with their four musically talented children.
