    Stephanie is a REMARKABLE OBOIST! She played a beautiful line for my film score and even gave me an extra take to play with. Her recording is professional quality and turned it around in great time. I will definitely hire her again! Thank you, Stephanie!

    Stephanie recorded a beautiful and elegant oboe for the song, which was able to give a fundamental color to the production. Excellent technique, very kind and wonderful communication. I hope we will soon have the opportunity to collaborate again together.

    I have worked with Stephanie on three orchestral tracks now, and each time she has delivered a perfect performance on some quite demanding music. Her remote recordings of both oboe and english horn are clear, bright and professional . First class musician! Highly recommended.

    Once again Stephanie has delivered a perfect performance within the deadline, with excellent sound quality. All I had to do was place her audio tracks into my work project and adjust the volume. Highly, highly recommended!

  4. A: I started playing when I was just 7 years old. I've been playing professionally for more than a decade. I have both undergraduate and master's degrees in oboe, and have studied with major players in the oboe world. I currently spend most of my time playing with professional orchestras in Indiana, but am often called to play musicals, with wind ensembles, churches, and even with rock bands playing an orchestra concert. I'm up for any kind of playing and love seeing where the oboe and English horn can take me!
