ABOUT
Hello! I'm Stephanie. I am a lifelong learner with a wide range of interests who is always acquiring new skills, talents, hobbies, and experiences. I'm constantly fascinated with how things operate, the ins-and-outs of why, how, and what makes things run smoothly, and the impacts it has on the human experience.
Sitting at the center of strategy, operations, culture and communications, I am a collaborative and innovative problem solver with 12+ years of experience in education and non-profit organizations.
I thrive in and find excitement in helping people and teams make sense of & adapt to ambiguity. I am naturally drawn to solving complex and ambiguous problems and shifting priorities, am fueled by the possibility of change and evolvement, and enjoy tapping into my ability to constantly learn and adapt.
Please check out my work in action (gallery) and the variety of work samples I'm proud to share. Reach out if you have any questions or curiosities!

She is incredibly creative, innovative, and is the lowest of keys rock stars, never asking for any praise. The ways she listens to EVERYONE, collaborates with so many different people, and just always leading with such optimism, approachability, and intentionality.

Stephanie is a quiet powerhouse who observes, who sees the big picture, who is able to make intentional connections, and leads with a team-first mentality. Stephanie is a linchpin on our team—her gifts, her strengths, her perspectives, her skillset are so unique and absolutely critical to the success of our collective program continuum."
