Escape from the Streets Former prostitute leads movement for survivors BY CELINA KAREIVA BELLEVUE REPORTER
Noel Gomez tried to escape the streets many times. But something always drew her back. Her pimp would find her, or Gomez would convince herself that the prospects weren’t much better outside the life – a dependency she likened to domestic abuse. “Every day I didn’t know if I’d live to see the next,” recalled Gomez of her 15 years in prostitution. “I’ve been hit with baseball bats, raped so many times [I’ve lost count], and had to jump out of cars. You don’t have time to deal with it...It feels like being in a war.” Gomez was a teenager when she first became entangled in the sinister life of prostitution. A young mother, she’d been kicked out of her Kirkland home and was living with her boyfriend of the time. Gomez remembers meeting her pimp at Bellevue Square. He enticed her with promises of a relationship and fame. “I had nothing. He sold me a dream,” she remembers. “He was offering me what I thought I needed at the time. He ended up being a hardcore pimp and abusing me to keep me in line.”
A PROBLEM EVERYWHERE Trafficking draws attention of state and regional leaders. Page 5
Gomez’s story isn’t unique. After a series of busts in the last decade, media and federal agencies pegged Seattle as a hotspot for prostitution and human trafficking. Its criminalization in 2003 has brought greater awareness, but many parts of Washington remain a destination because of their border locale and port city status. Though prostitution is often given the most attention, the types of trafficking vary, from sex slavery to forced labor in restaurants, homes and businesses. The latency of the crime makes it difficult to understand its scope. A 2008 study by anthropologist Debra Boyer estimates that somewhere between 300 and 500 youth are domestically trafficked in King County, alone. That number doesn’t account for the many adult men and women forced into the life, or the equally alarming number of people trafficked into the country. Nationally, that number jumps to 14,500 to 17,500 annually.

7 honored for downtown contributions
Seven Bellevue individuals, businesses and organizations were honored Thursday night for their contributions to the city’s downtown. The 2012 Place Making Awards, organized by the Bellevue Downtown Association, drew more than 400 business and community leaders to the event at Meydenbauer Center in Downtown Bellevue. “This year’s award winners have contributed to the making of a great place,” said Patrick Bannon, president of the association. “Their ideas, leadership and persistence play a huge role in downtown’s successful evolution as a vibrant, thriving and livable center for the city and region.” The 2012 Place Making Award winners are: Mary Pat Byrne (Arts Champion); Bellevue Botanical Garden Society (Community Treasure); Bake’s Place (Opening of the year); HNTB Corporation (Commute Champion); Su Development (Groundbreaking of the Year); The Bellevue Collection (Cultural Catalyst); and Leslie Lloyd (Leadership). Byrne, whose spent the last 25 years working at the City of Bellevue, was recognized for her advocacy of arts education and her involvement in bringing the biennial sculpture exhibition to fruition.

Ruffled feathers brings plea to ban roosters A plea to do something about a noisy rooster prompted the Bellevue City Council on Monday to look into banning ownership of them and peacocks and peahens. The latter two are noted for their alarming screams. The ban would be consistent with ordinances in many neighboring cities. Bellevue’s code would likely continue to allow residents to own up to six hens or ducks, geese and swans of either gender. The problem started in September when a family in Northeast Bellevue complained about a neighbor’s rooster, which reportedly crowed loud enough day and night to disturb homes several blocks away. Code compliance officers worked with the bird’s owner to prevent nighttime crowing, but the resident said the episode in the fall was not the first time a rooster had troubled the neighborhood. The council voted 5-2 for the staff to draft a code amendment, which would be go first to the Planning Commission and be subject to a public hearing before going to the council.

A team of students from Bellevue’s Odle Middle School has won first place in the BPA Regional Science Bowl 2013 in Portland. The event is the largest BPA science regional in the country. “Team Atom” is made up of Patrick Wang, Allen Yang, Erich Liang, Timmy Wang and Vincent Wang. They now move on, via an all expenses paid trip, to the Department of Energy’s National Science Bowl in Washington, D.C., April 25-29. Of the 50 middle school teams headed to the National competition, eight will be rewarded scholarships to pursue educations in math and science. The Oregon competition featured 64 middle school teams. In addition to Team Atom, two other Bellevue teams – “Galaxy Science” and “Xenon Science” – made it into the top 16. Two teams from Portland placed second and third. Team Atom adviser, Cathy Zhao, said the

competition featured 80 percent knowledge-based questions covering variety of sciences as well as math. While Zhao said while most teams in the competition have been preparing for months, Team Atom only formed three weeks ago after hearing about the regional competition. She attributes their success to the excellent education provided to the students by the Bellevue School District, and it’s highly esteemed PRISM program. “Our kids are the best of the best in math,” Zhao said. “I’m so proud of these kids.” While the team is not currently affiliated with the Bellevue School District, Zhao said it is the club’s goal to work with teachers and administrators at Odle to make an official science club at the school in the next year. “It’d be a great opportunity to get more kids involved with science,” Zhao said.

Rep. Smith visits Bellevue High, discusses gun control and I-502 BY KEEGAN PROSSER BELLEVUE REPORTER
U.S. Rep. Adam Smith (09-WA) told seniors at Bellevue High School that guns are a problem in the United States when he spoke to them Tuesday, Jan. 29 in an assembly. “There are far, far too many guns in this country,” Smith told the seniors, referencing recent actions made by Vice President Biden in regard to gun legislation. “We need stricter regulations to ensure those don’t get in to the hands of the wrong people.” Smith, who is in his ninth term in Congress, serves as Ranking Member of the House Armed Services Committee. Smith added that gun control is not the only problem, citing the culture of violence and a lack in support for mental health care in the United States as other major contributors. “Gun control is not going to stop gun violence – but if it’s sensibly done, it can make a difference.” The assembly was organized by teacher William D. Linser as a way for the young voters to get to know the congressman and his policies better. Linser solicited questions from students in advance of the assembly; students and were then give the chance to ask Smith their questions in front of their peers.
In addition to gun control, topics covered included what the legalization of marijuana means in Washington and Smith’s views on the current state of our economy. On the passing of the marijuana initiative – I-502 – Smith said the state is working with the federal government to find an agreement in which they can respect Washington law. “Ideally, that would be passing [legislation] that gives state laws priority,” Smith said. At this time, federal law trumps state. Stepping away from the political side of things, the Washington native also took a moment to address the rumors that the NBA may be returning to Seattle. Regarding the Sonics: “Don’t count your chickens before the eggs have hatched,” Smith said. Keegan Prosser: 425-453-4602 kprosser@bellevuereporter.com

EDITOR’S NOTE
I
Discovering Harborview
recently spent a day at Harborview to learn what goes on there and see what’s new in the world of medicine. Talk about eye-opening. I knew Harborview had a busy emergency department, but didn’t realize that it handles about 60,000 ER admissions a year. That’s an average of 164 a day for you non-math majors. Harborview also is where you’ll find Dr. Benjamin Starnes, who performs non-invasive aortic endovascular grafting – a ground-breaking procedure that surgeons from around the world come here to see. I also met Hunter Hoffman, DirecCraig Groshart tor of the Virtual Reality Research Center at the UW who, along with his colleagues Dr. Dave Patterson and Sam Sharar, MD, found a way to lessen the pain burn patients endure as they undergo treatment. The team developed a virtual reality computer-animated game that lets patients throw snowballs at penguins, snowmen and igloos. The result is that the patients don’t feel as much pain as their wounds are dressed or their skin is stretched in therapy. For scientists around the world who doubted that could happen, Hoffman has the MRI scans to prove it. By the way, the UW’s Human Interface Technology Laboratory in Seattle is one of the largest VR research laboratories in the world. Then there was Dr. Brian Ross, executive director of the Institute for Simulation & Interprofessional Studies. In short, it means physicians practice techniques on dummies to keep their skills sharp and effective. But these aren’t the Resusci Annies of CPR days. They are so life-like that their pupils respond to light, they can “talk” to the doctors and their “life-threatening” conditions can be ramped up to challenge even the most skilled physician. Bottom line: if doctors can’t show proficiency on the dummies, they can’t do the technique on real patients. That was only part of the day. I left Harborview exhausted, but more aware of the world-class medicine that is being developed and performed here in our own backyard. I can’t wait to learn more. – Craig Groshart, Bellevue Reporter

No one is someone else’s problem
S
ports news in the offseason is rarely a positive development. With the draft still months away and the wounds that were opened in the Georgia Dome nearly three weekends ago just beginning to close, there is little chance anything Seahawks-related is going to carry an uplifting vibe. Enter Leroy Hill. The longtime linebacker with the franchise was arrested on Tuesday on two counts alleged domestic violence. The first charge was fourth-degree assault while the second was for unlawful imprisonment. It is far too easy (though completely understandable) to simply condemn the reprehensible actions Hill is accused of by the 26-year-old Issaquah woman who is the alleged victim and his girlfriend. Far too often, the public casts aside Josh Suman entertainers that run afoul with the law or demonstrate a dysfunctional moral compass. A basketball player is arrested in a night club with a handgun? Give him an outright release and let him be someone else’s problem. The rockstar who can’t put down the bottle? Her music was never my style in the first place. None of that is to say Hill’s actions should be excused, in fact it is quite the opposite. He should be afforded due process and if convicted, punished to the fullest extent of the law. Then he, and the victim, should get some help. Domestic violence is not a character flaw, it is the symptom of a complex set of deeply rooted emotional and psychological conflicts. That becomes even more apparent when faced with the fact this is not the first time frustration has boiled over in Hill’s romantic life. Issaquah was the scene of another arrest on a domestic violence charge in 2010. It was resolved without a conviction when he entered a stipulated-order of continuance that helped him avoid a trial and stated that an 18-month court probation and
REPORTER’S NOTEBOOK completion of a year-long state-certified domestic violence treatment program would render the case dismissed. Whatever demons Hill and the woman he allegedly assaulted and held against her will have, there are outlets in the community to provide the tools both need to curb such destructive tendencies. No one is “someone else’s problem.” It may seem that way as we watch tragedies such as the shootings in Colorado and Connecticut, but that mindset shifts when it happens at Cafe Racer, in Rainier Beach or at Bellevue’s Munchbar. Instead of declaring him an expendable asset for the Seahawks, or unfit member of our community’s fabric, let’s recognize this is a problem that won’t simply be gone once Leroy Hill cleans out his locker. Rather than hoping he simply gets on a plane and leaves to wreak havoc on the women of another city, let’s hope he finds a way to mend his shattered psyche and learn to have productive and fruitful relationships. And most importantly, let’s show him there is no better place to do those things than right here. LifeWire, an Eastside-based organization founded in 1982 under the moniker Eastside Domestic Violence Program, has served more than 115,000 victims of domestic violence, right in our own backyard. It is but one of a number of organizations that assists victims of domestic violence and provides training and counseling. In 2011, LifeWire fielded nearly 11,000 crisis-line calls and educated more than 23,000 individuals in the community on domestic violence. Let’s hope in 2013, a former-Seahawks player and a 20-something from Issaquah are two of them. Josh Suman: 425-453-5045; jsuman@bellevuereporter.com

Human trafficking happens everywhere BY CELINA KAREIVA BELLEVUE REPORTER
Once, when Noel Gomez, tried to leave her pimp, he put up missing person posters of her son. As soon as she spotted his pixilated image on the telephone poles, Gomez knew that if she tried to run, he’d surely go after her family, too. Other nights, he made her stay out all evening as punishment. “I was afraid to leave my house,” said Gomez of the mental captivity she endured, even after leaving prostitution. “I was afraid all the time, of everything.” Despite its progressive reputation, the Eastside has also seen a string of human trafficking cases in recent years, many of them involving the city’s foreign born. In 2004 Bellevue’s Apple Spa was determined to be a front for prostitution. Hundreds of used condoms were found in the massage parlor’s garbage. Two years later, a federal investigation arrested nine in an international trafficking ring that smuggled women in cargo containers from across Asia. Of the nine charged, seven were arrested in Seattle. Again in 2009, arrests were made in a massage parlor inNoel Gomez vestigation that involved SeaTac, Kirkland and Bellevue. Royal Spa and the Chada Thai Bodyworks of Bellevue, were among those raided. Most recently, a nine-month investigation last year closed a dozen businesses and arrested 55 for charges ranging from prostitution to practicing without a license. “This is a crime that happens [here] that affects people from all over the world, regardless of background, where they grew up, or what community they live in,” says Marie Hoffman of Washington Anti-Trafficking Response Network, adding that: “When talking about cases in Bellevue, we’re not talking about the ‘wrong side of Bellevue.’” Hoffman cautions against the usual stereotypes applied to

BILLBOARD TARGETS HUMAN TRAFFICKING A new outlet to increase awareness of the tragedy of Human Trafficking in King County was unveiled this week on a billboard along the East Valley Highway in Kent. The ad space, donated by Clear Channel Outdoors, will advertise a national hotline and messaging aimed at reaching out to victims, potential victims and the public about where to turn for help. The ads encourage people to call the National Human Trafficking Resource Center hotline at 1-888-373-7888 if they suspect someone may be a victim of human trafficking or if they are victims themselves.
prostitution and trafficking. For one, many of those caught in its web – particularly on the Eastside – are immigrants, brought to the U.S. as “mail-order brides,” or with the promise of salaried labor. Abuse and threats, coupled with language or cultural barriers and the withholding of identification papers create an environment of fear. In other cases, says Bellevue resident and former Attorney General Rob McKenna, trafficking has shifted to online platforms. During his time as AG, McKenna campaigned to shut down sites like backpage. com, an online advertising service, which was linked to the prostitution of underage girls. In a 2011 Bellevue human services commission meeting, a panel presentation identified trafficking cases as a nearly everyday occurrence. Patrol officers were said to routinely knock on hotel doors on the Eastside. “It is not uncommon for them to find underage girls,” reads the commission minutes. “We have to be aware this is a problem in our own city in Bellevue, in our state and our country,” said McKenna. “We need to rethink the whole nature of prostitution. Popular media, Hollywood and others, promote this depiction that prostitution involves happy-go-lucky entrepreneurs trying to make a living. That’s false. We know from the research that the vast majority desperately want to get out of the life.”

Further complicating things, says Gomez, prostitution is often a fluid industry. Gomez can remember her pimp picking up and leaving for California or Arizona, every time he sensed the cops might be on their tails. “People still think that we choose this life,” she said. “No little girl grows up and says I want to be a prostitute.” Gomez’ memories of the life are complicated. She felt both contempt and affection for her pimp. As Pamer notes in his documentary which opened at Lincoln Cinemas last December, many pimps prey on the vulnerabilities of girls, leading them to believe that their relationship is one of love. “Still, at times I think about going back,” she explains. “But I have to remember that if I go back once, I go right back to where I was. It’s just like drugs or alcohol. You’re totally giving it up, or you’re not.” She counts those emotions as an advantage she has over other resources and organizations. Her understanding of the complicated relationship between girls and their pimps has helped her serve as a victim’s advocate. Gomez wouldn’t escape the life until she turned 32. To this day, she struggles with symptoms of PTSD and severe anxiety. But helping others provides some solace. For three years, Gomez facilitated a sex industry workers class with the city of Seattle. And last year, she founded the Organization for Prostitution Survivors (OPS), a nonprofit that uses art projects and workshops to help women who’ve left the life, heal their wounds. “I think it’s important that survivors lead this movement,” says Gomez. “Like domestic violence survivors or the civil rights movement, it needs to be led by them.” To learn more about OPS, visit seatttleops.com.

Bellevue begins dreaming of its future The future of Bellevue seems hard to conjure up. But Tuesday, residents and city staff met to discuss their own expectations at a comprehensive plan update meeting hosted by the East Bellevue Community Council. Community members were asked to share their thoughts about recent growth, and the next 20 to 50 years of the city. Last updated in 2004, the comprehensive plan
is referred to on a nearly daily basis to ensure that economic, environmental and community growth all aligns with the city’s image for itself. The council would likely adopt the updates in early 2014. But because much has changed since 2004 – most notably the light rail’s planned expansion into the Eastside – participants were split into groups and asked for feedback. At one table, residents agreed that Bellevue needed to find housing to better match

the city’s changing demographic, including an aging population and greater number of families. Matt Palmer, a resident of Bellevue who works in Everett, said he and his wife would like to live downtown but there is no affordable housing for a family of four. Others noted that for the city’s elderly, it made more sense to move in with family then to find assisted living. Smaller living, they agreed, spoke to both ends of the life cycle. Others expressed concern that despite
the city’s growth, small independent businesses might lose its footing against the likes of Kemper Development. City staff hope to collect feedback and use it to inform policy changes, future infrastructure and services.

DOWNTOWN CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1
The Bellevue Botanical Garden was recognized for its years of service to downtown Bellevue, and its volunteer’s dedication to nurturing and preserving the beauty of the downtown district. Local hotspot Bake’s Place was awarded “Opening of the Year” for its contribution to Bellevue’s ever-expanding entertainment calendar. Opened in Bellevue in May 2012, the concert venue boasts a great atmosphere, delicious food and standout live music entertainment. The HNTB Corporation was recognized for setting a high standard in regard to improving mobility for their employees in downtown Bellevue. In 2012, 80 percent of HNTB employees received an ORCA transit pass, and more than 70 percent of their employees chose a mode other than driving alone to work, including 6 percent who biked or walked. Su Development broke ground on downtown’s first major project coming out of the recession, a 21-story residential tower at Northeast Second Street and 106th Avenue
Northeast called Soma Towers. The groundbreaking was cited for showing continued confidence in the Downtown Bellevue market and keeping the spotlight fixed on downtown’s future as a livable urban center. Receiving the honor “Cultural Catalyst” was The Bellevue Collection, which was recognized for its significant commitment to animating its retail environment with arts exhibitions, cultural programming and demonstrations featuring local performance groups. The leadership award was given to Leslie Lloyd, the former president of the BDA, who retired in 2012 after serving as the head of the association for 11 years.
A champion for improving Downtown Bellevue, Lloyd was a key player in a variety of projects during her time with the BDA, including city planning, increasing access to performing arts, philanthropy and regional transportation. Following the awards program, keynote speaker Brad Segal, founder and president of Denverbased Progressive Urban Management Associates (PUMA), delivered his insights on global trends shaping cities today. Segal’s presentation covered key changes in demographics, lifestyles and global competition and their impact locally. As one of the nation’s leading authorities on downtown issues, he offered a proactive view of Downtown Bellevue’s future and tangible ideas for anticipating the changes ahead.

When Farhad Korram first moved to Bellevue from Iran, he can remember only a single high-rise building in downtown Bellevue. Today, his store, Oriental Rug Co., is flanked by parking lots and retail space he hardly could have imagined three decades ago. “[There’s been] a lot of change,” recalls Korram as he surveys a storeroom crammed with rugs of all shapes and designs. They’re rolled and stacked in corners, hanging from the walls and layered like islands in the middle of the store room. After 32 years in business, Korram recently announced plans to retire and sell the 0.3 acre site to Kemper Development for an undisclosed amount. “When we came here, it was just the Packard building. Now, [there’s] a lot of buildings here, that have actually transformed this part of Bellevue.” Korram fled Iran in 1980, during the Iranian revolution. His property and belongings had been seized by the

Farhad Korram and his wife, Azi, sit in the center of their store room at Oriental Rug Co., which will soon close as the family plans to retire. CELINA KAREIVA, Bellevue Reporter government, and Korram had spent six months in jail. He was fleeing a country that no longer felt like home. His brother had been in Germany and sold rugs himself, so he encouraged Korram to do the same in the states. Before moving into their current space, Korram and his wife opened a smaller location at the center of the
court in Bellevue Square mall. Because Oriental Rug imports the rugs themselves, without any middleman, the business quickly proved profitable. He purchased their location at Bellevue Way and Northeast Fourth Street, and demolished an existing building SEE ORIENTAL RUG, 11

Money management meets Downton Abbey Bellevue fee-only financial planner Steve Juetten says inspiration for smart personal money management can be found everywhere, even in television programming like the blockbuster series Downton Abbey. “I was watching the season three premiere episode and it struck me that there are all sorts of personal finance lessons we can learn from this rich mix of Steve Juetten characters,” Juetten said. He assembled a number of lessons from the popular show. ■ Don’t put all your eggs in one basket: Juetten notes that Lord Grantham invested almost of his wife’s fortune in the stock of a Canadian Railroad company and then lost it all when the company went bankrupt. Lord Grantham was in shock because everyone knew the company was going to be a success. Just because everyone knows something is a good idea doesn’t mean you can’t stop thinking for yourself. ■ Prepare for the unexpected: Mrs. Hughes has an ailment this season and we don’t know how it will resolve. Mrs. Patmore had eye surgery last season. Neither have medical coverage. ■ If it’s too good to be true, it probably is. And illegal gains are fleeting: In season two, Thomas the footman/valet decided to deal in black market goods after the end of World War I to make a quick profit. He was double crossed by his supplier and lost everything. ■ The best way to save for retirement
is to start early, be consistent and stay the course: Anna, the ever-loyal wife of the convicted murderer Mr. Bates has decided the best way to free her husband is to slowly, patiently and consistently follow-up every lead she can find to prove his innocence. “Saving for retirement is like that,” Juetten says. “You don’t prepare for retirement at one time.” ■ Your financial assets are like a garden. You have to regularly tend to them in order for you to reap the bounty: In the current season, Matthew Crawley has discovered that the assets of Downton Abby have been mismanaged for years because Lord Grantham has been too busy to be bothered. Juetten says, “Neglect eventually leads to misfortune.” ■ Luck is not a plan: Finally, we have the example of the life of Matthew Crawley. Notes Juetten, “A client of mine says he wants to be like Matthew Crawley. He seems to be the luckiest guy on the planet. “The problem is that luck is not a plan,” Juetten says. “It’s much more likely that your personal finances will get you to your goals if you focus on the things you control and NOT wait for distant relatives to leave you a fortune.” Juetten, a fee-only Certified Financial Planner in Bellevue, does not sell any products or take commissions. He has been named a 5-Star Wealth Manager by Seattle Magazine for the last three years. He has compiled practical personal finance ideas and tips in a free new eBook SmartMoney Rules Little Green Book. Readers can obtain a copy of it at http://finpath.com/gift/.

Saints living up to name off court When Corey Ohayre became the head coach of the Interlake boys basketball team prior to the start of this season, he knew it would be a challenge to get the Saints near the top of a densely talented conference. But he also knew he wanted the gains his players made away from the court to surpass anything they did between the lines. “I want to have a relationship and go further with non-profit organizations every year,” Ohayre said. “These kids are the ones that get to start it.” With that mission in mind, Ohayre and the Saints decided to connect with the Bellevue Family YMCA and its Family and Youth Leadership Program. The group helped each of the district’s high schools organize and coordinate a summer reading program geared at middle school aged AfricanAmerican boys in Belle-

As part of their work with the Y, each school also executed a community service project. For Ohayre and the Saints, that meant snacks, and lots of them. Junior Austin Clark said the team started the project with modest goals before the entire Interlake community rallied to collect enough snacks to create around 300 snack packs, which will be given to Friends of Youth and distributed from their Redmond facility. On its website, Friends of Youth lists a $50 donation as sufficient to provide 10 snack packs, which puts
the value of the items the Saints collected at around $1,500. “We just handed out fliers and we didn’t think that many people would bring items,” Clark said. “But a ton of people did and there was a lot of support.” Clark’s mother Michelle is on the Board of Directors at the Bellevue Family Y and said while her own son and family have been involved in non-profit work for some time, seeing her son spread that passion to his teammates and the broader Interlake community was humbling. “They took it to the next
level,” she said. “It is the most donations I’ve ever seen come it at one school for one event.” Ohayre said in future years, he wants to incorporate events like this throughout the season and school year to keep players engaged in the community and for Clark, the chance to share volunteering with his teammates and benefit young people around their own age made the experience memorable. “I think it’s really important to do something for your community,” Ohayre said. “We have to remember a lot of things are bigger than us.”

Sammamish girls basketball coach Loren Tillman resigned from the program last week in the midst of his second season at the helm, citing personal reasons. The move came late last week according to athletic director Pat McCarthy. The Reporter published a feature story on the turnaround the program has experienced during his time there in its January 25 print edition detailing the story behind the past two seasons, including the program’s first KingCo win in its last 110 Loren Tillman tries earlier this year. Athletic director Pat McCarthy said assistant coach Mike Schick will serve as interim head coach for the rest of the year. “He was doing a good job and the program was moving forward,” McCarthy said of Tillman. “It was an unfortunate situation.” Tillman, when reached by email, said a number of recent developments in his personal life would not allowed him to continue dedicating the time he wished to the program. “I truly love basketball and loved coaching the girls,” he said. “I am so proud of each and every one of the girls that have been a part of the program these last two seasons.”

Little lady, big voice Eastside girl boasts rich, classical chops as part of Seattle Opera’s ‘La Bohème’ BY KEEGAN PROSSER BELLEVUE REPORTER
For the most part, Mary Elizabeth Adler is your typical middle school girl: she studies, she plays sports and she’s an active member of her school’s orchestra. But the 13-year-old Bellevue resident has another trick up her sleeve. She sings classical music. And apparently, she does it really well. This month, she’ll perform in her third Seattle Opera production, as part of the children’s choir, in “La Bohème.” Mary Elizabeth first caught the performing arts bug when she was cast in her elementary school’s production of “Mulan Jr.” She was in third grade and living in Seoul, South Korea at the time. The youngest of four children - and the only girl - Mary Elizabeth got her first taste for theatre in the Northwest when she participated in a workshop with Village Theatre. “It just didn’t click with me,” said Mary Elizabeth about her stint with musical theater. At that point, the young soprano decided to focus on classical training, and at the suggestion of her mother, Julia, joined the St. James Cathedral children’s, and later, young women’s choir. “I think being trained as a soloist, and singing in a choir and being part of en ensemble is important to developing your voice in all these different ways,” Julia said. “And at a young age you learn so quickly and so fast.” Mary Elizabeth also began taking lessons with Stacey Sunde, the director of youth music at the church, who trained the young singer until she felt it was time for her to move on. For the past two years, Mary Elizabeth has studied under soprano Nancy Zylstra, who prompted her to audition for the Seattle Opera. “[Mary Elizabeth] loves music - and is so musical,” Zylstra said. “Some people really are born with music in them...and I feel like that’s true of her. It’s really extraordinary.” Mary Elizabeth’s participation in “Carmen,” in October 2011, was actually her first trek in to Opera - an experience that found her mom buying her an introductory book about opera. She’s since fallen in love with the art. “I just love the sound. I love how it’s really big, I love how they don’t use microphones,” Mary Elizabeth said. “I love the combination of the acting, and the costumes and the singing. Just all of that rolled in to one.” Via her work with the choirs, as well as her involvement with the Seattle Opera, Mary Elizabeth has had the chance to sing in French, Italian, Latin, Chinese, German - and most recently, Hebrew. This spring she also plans

As far as choosing singing as a career, Mary Elizabeth hasn’t made any decisions. She admits she has a lot of interests, among them writing and playing soccer. But for now, she’s taking it one day at a time. “In our family, there are two requirements when it comes to an activity,” Julia said. “Are you having fun? And are you moving forward?” When asked these questions in regard to singing, Mary Elizabeth responds with a resounding ‘yes.’ Keegan Prosser: 425-453-4602 kprosser@bellevuereporter.com
