Anna Diemer

Anna Diemer is a voice teacher, Singing Voice Specialist, PAVA-Recognized Vocologist, and professional soprano based in Asheville, NC.  Their private studio consists primarily of avocational adult singers, many of whom came to them with complaints of vocal irregularities, tension, and fatigue.  Anna was drawn to the world of voice science and SVS practice to better help these students sing with the freedom and power that they once experienced.  They expanded their practice to include gender-affirming voice care in the fall of 2022, and they enjoy the opportunity to further serve the LGBTQ+ community through vocal exploration and play. Anna earned their undergraduate degree from Furman University and their masters from the University of Houston Moores School of Music. When they’re not in the voice studio, Anna enjoys cooking, reading fantasy novels, and gaming on their Switch.
