is the Founder of CTA, which stands for Collaborative Teaching Artists with an emphasis on COLLABORATIVE. We are trying to create a Supportive Community where performers - Beginners to Professionals- have a place to learn their new skills and hone their craft. Katie has been teaching and coaching voices, as well as performing, for over 10 years. Having graduated from the Steinhardt School at New York University with a Bachelors degree in Vocal Performance (Classical Voice), she continued her Master’s degree at the Steinhardt School at NYU in Vocal Performance (Classical Voice) where she studied with Dr. Brian Gill. Katie simultaneously received her Post Masters Advanced Certificate in Vocal Pedagogy. While attending NYU she taught a variety of singers as an Adjunct Professor of Voice ranging from complete beginners to recording artists and professional performers. Her students have gone on to perform in semi-professional and professional choirs, musical theater performances, as well as operas and classical concerts around the city. Additionally, she has also helped many singers in the rehabilitation of their voices. Katie also teaches private voice at Highbridge Voices, a non-profit free after school program for grades 4-12.
