During her Master’s, Ms. Moore was a part of the Knoxville Opera Studio as one of their Studio Artists, understudying and performing leading roles with the Knoxville Opera at the Tennessee State Theater.

In 2012 Ms. Moore moved to Europe to pursue her career there where she was scouted for the role of Carlotta Giudicelli in the Hamburg, Germany revival of Lord Andrew Lloyd Webber's "Das Phantom der Oper," a role which she went on to perform more than 500 times. After her 2 years singing the part of the opera diva Carlotta, she was cast as Christine Daae in the first German company of "Liebe stirbt nie," the sequel to "The Phantom of the Opera."
