Stephanie Gow

FIRST AND FOREMOST, I’M A MOM AT HEART! I THRIVE ON SEEING OUR CHILDREN AND YOUNG ADULTS’ FULLEST POTENTIAL UNLEASHED… TAPPING INTO THE UNKNOWN PLACES AND GROWING IN BOTH CHARACTER AND COMPETENCE. THERE’S NOTHING THAT BRINGS ME MORE JOY THAN WATCHING THE NEXT GENERATION SHINE.. IT’S MY LIFE GOAL!

MY EXPERIENCE AS A SINGER DATES BACK TO CHILDHOOD, WHERE I COMPETED REGULARLY IN TALENT SHOWS, PAGEANTS, AND UIL COMPETITIONS. THROUGHOUT MY YOUNG ADULT YEARS, I PERFORMED IN OPRYS, FESTIVALS, SERVED AS LEAD WORSHIP LEADER, AND RECORDED A CHRISTIAN/SOUTHERN ROCK ALBUM WITH MY BAND, MAGNOLIA ROSE BAND, IN FRANKLIN, TN. IN ADDITION, I STARRED AS LAURIE IN OKLAHOMA, AND WAS A FEATURED SOLOIST AT BASS HALL. I’VE BEEN BLESSED WITH MANY INCREDIBLE OPPORTUNITIES TO USE MY VOICE, AND MY EDUCATIONAL BACKGROUND, (AS TEACHER AND COACH), ALONG WITH MY VAST EXPERIENCES HAVE PREPARED ME TO BE THE VERY BEST CHAPELHOUSE INSTRUCTOR FOR OUR STUDENTS!

Shelby Priddy

PRIVATE VOCAL COACH

I’ve lived in DFW my entire life, graduating from Mansfield high school in 2017 and Texas Christian University in 2021 with a BFA in musical theatre! In high school, I was in varsity choir for 4 years, student director for the latter 2, and I received best in state for UIL solo & ensemble. I was also a part of the TMEA All State Women’s choir in 2014, and a part of the TMEA All State Mixed choir in 2015 & 2017. For high school theatre, I was nominated for best leading actress in a musical for DSM’s High School Musical Theatre Awards in 2015 & 2017, and I won best leading actress in a musical in 2017. This sent me on to Nationals (The Jimmy Awards) where I was able to spend a week in NYC workshopping with broadway professionals. Over the years, many of the roles I have played include Belle in Beauty and the Beast, Jo March in Little Women, Ursula in the Little Mermaid, Grandma Tzietel in Fiddler on the Roof, and Mrs. Lovett and the Beggar Woman in two different productions of Sweeney Todd. Some professional theatre credentials include Kayleen in Gruesome Playground Injuries (Millennial Poison Theatre Co.), Vocal Ensemble in Mamma Mia (Casa Mañana), and the Step Mother in Roger & Hammerstein’s Cinderella (Lyric Theatre, cancelled due to Covid-19). I currently live around Frisco as a field coordinator and accountant for a small company.
