Stephanie will guide your child through a meaningful & spiritual experience. She gives so much of herself to her students sharing her passion for Torah & Jewish music through a personalized education & a service customized to your child’s personality & creativity. She takes care of every detail, and has guided countless students to their special day with a true sense of connection to their Jewish heritage.
