Stephanie was raised from humble beginnings in Crestview, Florida.
At a young age she discovered a love of performance, however, her small town offered little opportunity to explore her passion. She found an outlet in school choir and excelled as an outstanding Soprano throughout her high school years.
On a high school chorus trip to New York City, she attended "Phantom of the Opera" on Broadway. This experience inspired and solidified her desire for a future in performance.
After graduating high school, she auditioned to study at the American Musical and Dramatic Academy in New York City and was accepted. After figuring out finances with the help of family, a true friend, and a couple of large student loans, she was on her way to the city.
She studied in New York for three years, while taking in all the art, culture, and beauty the city had to offer. Her life had changed forever.
During her time at AMDA NYC, her focus shifted from singing to acting. While she was studying Musical Theater, she discovered a great passion for creating and psychologically dissecting characters. While music will always be her first love, acting gave her a sense of challenge and fulfillment she had never realized.
After graduation from AMDA, she moved to Los Angeles. She never wanted fame, but she knew that LA would be the best opportunity for her to make a living as an actor. Upon arrival, Stephanie began attending on-camera training classes. The new challenges of being small and specific that came with film acting excited her.
Los Angeles has welcomed her. She has performed in short films, plays, and television. She continues to study and develop her craft.
Stephanie is currently the personal assistant to J. Michael Straczynski who is her mentor, friend, and a constant support.
