Ragnheiður Petra Óladóttir began her singing studies with Helga Rós Indriðadóttir. Petra was also in the Sóldís Women's Choir where she got to express herself as a soloist. After three years of singing studies in Skagafjörður, she went south to the opera department of Sigurðar Demetz's Singing School. There she was under the guidance of Sigrún Hjálmtýsdóttir. In 2016 and 2017, she took part in the Young People's Opera Academy, where scenes from various operas were staged in Harpa. Outside the school walls, she has participated in various activities outside of upcoming projects. Among them, she premiered Edda Bjarkar Jónsdóttir's work together with Ólaf Frey Birkisson and the amateur orchestra and was a guest singer at the Christmas Huns in Blönduós.

Throughout her schooling, Petra has had the opportunity to sing and learn various roles, such as Madame Hertz in Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Schauspieldirektor, Annina from Johann Strauss's Eine Nacht in Venedig, and The Night's Queen from Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Magic Flute Now in the spring months, Petra Adele sings in Johann II Strauss's Bat in the Art Academy's production.
Now she completes a B.mus degree at the Iceland Academy of the Arts, where her teachers are Hanna Dóra Sturludóttir, Kristinn Sigmundsson, Dísella Lárusdóttir and her co-star is Matthildur Anna Gísladóttir. The trip is then called to further studies.
