In 2016, at 21 years old, Pfeiffer was selected by Gustavo Dudamel to perform as Maria in West Side Story at the Hollywood Bowl after the Los Angeles Philharmonic's artistic team showed him YouTube videos of her performing.[3]

A year later, she made her national tour debut as Eliza Hamilton in the Angelica Company of Hamilton, earning positive reviews.[6][7][8]
