In the summer of 2024 she made her company debut singing Hortensius in Opera Company of Middlebury's La Fille du Régiment while working as a young artist. After making her company debut in 2023 as Morozova in Tchaikovsky's Undina with Queen City Opera, she returned to sing the Third Lady in their Mozart: Super Flute production. Other roles in her repertory include the title role in Britten’s The Rape of Lucretia, the title role in Handel’s Agrippina, Mère Marie in Poulenc's Les Dialogues des Carmélites, Ruth in Gregory Spears’s The Righteous, and Dritte Dame in Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte. As a choreographer, Tess teaches six classes weekly to various age groups and styles at the Neighborhood Music School in New Haven. As a director, her recent credits include Handel’s Rinaldo and Bach’s Coffee Cantata. This June, Tess is stage directing Modern Vintage Opera’s double bill of Mozart’s lesser-known one act of Bastien und Bastienne and Mascagni’s Cavalleria Rusticana. She just wrapped up assistant directing with Ben Spierman in Bronx Opera’s production of Humperdinck’s Hansel and Gretel and singing in her first concert with Marshall Opera for their annual Opera Oral History project, where she premiered an aria from Benjamin Yarmolinsky’s opera The Trial of Anna.
