I’ve worked with Stephanie across a range of roles and organizations since 2019, and she continues to be one of my most trusted collaborators. I’ve brought her on as a social media manager, events producer, and communications lead—most notably during my maternity leave in the middle of a major Centennial campaign. In every instance, she’s brought strategic thinking, a fun and confident presence, and a rare ability to project manage both the big picture and the tiny details.

Stephanie is the kind of professional you want on your team when it matters most. She’s reliable, creative, and genuinely invested in the success of every project. I always have peace of mind knowing I can hand something off to her and it will be handled with care, clarity, and excellence—including my wedding day! That's how much I trust her.
