Stephanie is from a small town about an hour north of Minneapolis in Minnesota. She holds a bachelor's degree from the College of Saint Benedict and a master's degree in global public health from Saint Catherine University in Minnesota, which kickstarted her career in public health communications. Her background is in global health and international development, mostly in the government space, but always with a focus on mission driven storytelling and communications.
She is excited to bring her public health lens and passion for storytelling to an organization that addresses the root causes of the social determinants of health affecting youth in Portland.
Stephanie feels most alive when traveling, spending time outside, or getting lost in a book.
