Help Callie Study and Sing in Austria

I have been trying to study opera abroad since pre-covid, but it kept getting postponed. As time went on and I finished my undergrad and joined the work force, this dream of mine began to feel further and further away. Student loans hit me like a ton of bricks, along with all the other bills and responsibilities that come with post-grad life.

As a young singer (especially being a woman), it’s not so easy to find or be accepted into quality young arts programs. When you do, they’re costly… there’s even a fee just to audition.

This July, I plan on finally attending a 4 week intensive study program - Patti and Allen Herbert Frost School of Music Program at Salzburg, the birthplace of Mozart! I will meet and learn from various professionals in the field, study German language, experience new culture, and, of course, make great advancements in my musicianship through lessons, coachings, masterclasses, and performances.

I am kindly asking for any monetary contribution that you may be able to offer. It’s cliche but every little bit helps. Be on the lookout for an announcement on the recital that I am planning for late spring as a gift to my friends and family!
