Stefanie has been drawn to creativity for as long as she can remember, though she began intentionally developing her artistic pursuits in her twenties. What started with photography and growing flowers gradually expanded into painting and sewing, sparking a deep appreciation for creative expression across many forms.

Professionally, Stefanie’s background blends science and business. She earned a Bachelor of Science in Geology in 2016 and later completed her MBA in 2022. While her career has been rooted in analytical fields, her creative work has always been an important counterbalance—each artistic skill developed through curiosity, experimentation, and self-teaching.

In 2024, Stefanie, her husband, and their three dogs moved to the coast of North Carolina. The coastal landscape now influences much of her work, with bright colors, natural textures, and impressionistic movement frequently appearing throughout her paintings and creative projects.
