"It's just TV."
It’s always story.
Stephanie loves people. The heroes, the villains, the ones who surprise you in the final act and the ones who break your heart in the first. Showcasing every moment that makes someone uniquely human brings her great joy.
She gets footage. Hours and hours of real people, real moments, real lives, and she sits with it until she finds what nobody else could see. The story that was always there, waiting for someone to care enough to find it.
She has done that on HBO, ABC, Discovery, Roku, MAX, BET+, YouTube Originals and Snapchat Originals before anyone knew what those could be. She has made audiences fall in love, cry, laugh and feel things they did not expect to feel watching content they thought they already understood.
Her work does not live in one format. From scripted comedic cold opens starring Ellie Kemper and Zach Cherry on The Great American Baking Show to short form vertical content on Snapchat Originals, where as lead editor and consulting producer she built the editorial language of a format nobody had cut before and found a complete story inside eight minutes. Across several formats she has shaped branded integrations for clients including Jeep, Chevrolet, Sherwin-Williams, and Smirnoff, building them into the story rather than around it.
The cast members she has spent the most time with will never know her name. The audiences who felt something because of her work will never know why. That is not a footnote to her career. That is the whole point of it.
A graduate of Loyola Marymount University's School of Film and Television. She finds the story. She tells it best.
Every format is different. The story is always the point.
