If you met me at a party, and we were holding tiny plates of food while trying to make small talk, I can promise you that, ten minutes later, I’d walk away from that interaction with a gift (and it would not be shrimp cocktail). It would be your story. I would leave knowing more about you, and, for me, this truly is a gift. It’s why I believe I was put on this earth.
I was born to tell your story. Maybe you think you don’t have one, or if you do, perhaps you think it’s insignificant. But, to me, it’s beautiful.
You have a voice, and a message the world needs to hear. I help clients grow their brand recognition by creating a customized and expansive verbal identity, a strategic social media presence and engagement plan and targeted media outreach. My client list has run the gamut from a pain management doctor, life coach, cupcake shop, solar energy company, a CFO, duct work company and retired NBA player. Let me help you find your story, and share it with the world.
I have written for Saveur, BBC Travel, Success, Eating Well, the Washington Post, USA Today, the Guardian, the Seattle Times, Seattle magazine and more. Samples of my writing can be found below, but the full list of my published work can be found on Muckrack.

Stefanie is an excellent writer. Of course, she has mastered technical writing skills but even more than that, Stefanie has the heart to write from a place we all wish we could access. Her words touch a place not every writer can find, combining her writing skill with her ability to see her subject with a thoughtful and penetrating eye.
I first met Stefanie 14 years ago when she was a student in my writing class at Washington University in St. Louis. Even in a class of exceptionally talented, highly motivated individuals (Washington University is perennially in the top 15 colleges in the U.S. according to the U.S. News surveys), Stefanie stood out for her talent and her passion for writing. Subsequently I have followed her work in industry and for local and national publications. She is dedicated and meticulous and has, if possible, increased the passion for her craft that I first saw in her in the classroom.
