Stephanie graduated from The University of North Carolina Wilmington in 2010, with a BA in Communication Studies and Minor in Studio Art.

She began her art career as a painting instructor over ten years ago and you can still find her teaching adult art classes in Wilmington. When she's not teaching or working on commissions, you can also find her on scaffolding creating murals for the local community. Her murals can be seen at notable locations such as the Children's Museum of Wilmington as well as Novant Health's Cancer Treatment Center. 

She has had the honor of working alongside organizations such as the Cameron Art Museum, Dreams Center of Arts Education, and Wilmington Art Association. In 2026 she was awarded with first place in 2-D for Wilmington Art Association's Spring Art show.

"My inspiration usually comes from stories and memories that are deeply personal. I grew up on the coast, so naturally the ocean and water are a huge part of my identity. I am also a mother and I am very spiritual, I believe in the healing abilities of art. In a world of consumers, be a creator."
