Stef is a member of both BHS and BinG! (Barbershop in Germany) and a newly certified BHS Performance Judge, the first European to do so. She has been involved in barbershop for a bit over a decade, as a quartet singer and a chorus director. Outside of Barbershop, she has acted and directed theater groups, as well as danced and choreographed jazz dance.
In her coaching, she focuses on helping performers to bring their most authentic self to their performance and finding ways to make the song truly their own.
Stef has a deep passion for all aspects of human communication and will not shut up about it. She brings to her coaching sessions a full tool box of natural communication techniques and how ensembles can apply them for a more engaging performance. Being very left-brained herself, Stef loves working with singers who are NOT natural performers, helping them to find ways to bring the song to life authentically – without feeling weird.
