Meet Katherine - Piano, Voice, and Guitar Teacher

Katherine (she/her) is a singer, pianist and guitar player originally from Pullman, Washington. Although she has been singing since she could speak, she truly fell in love with music at the age of 12 when she started taking formal voice lessons, and her passion only grew as she spent the rest of her childhood and teenage years in choirs, musicals and competitions. This passion led her to pursue music at a post-secondary level, where she completed her Bachelor's of Music degree in Vocal Performance at the University of Victoria just across the water in Canada. For the last 5 years she has lived in Victoria, studying music as well as teaching privately. It is here that she discovered her love for not only performing music, but also for being a part of other people's musical journeys. Inspired by the amazing teachers that consistently shaped the trajectory of her life, Katherine prioritizes creating a welcoming, fun and judgment-free teaching space. She has gained expertise in many different genres including classical, musical theater, contemporary and jazz, and enjoys building an individual and customizable lesson plan for each student depending on their desires. Katherine whole-heartedly believes that everybody has the potential to be a great musician and looks forward to contributing to the community! She is new to Seattle and excited to be a part of AWSOM's team.
