Stephanie is a Registered Social Worker, an Ontario Certified Teacher, and an Early Childhood Educator. Her academic background includes a Bachelor of Science (Honours) in Psychology, a Master of Arts in Child Study and Education, a Certificate in International Development, and an Advanced Certificate in Couple and Family Therapy. A lifelong learner at heart, she is currently working on a part-time Master of Social Work.
With over two decades of experience, Stephanie has dedicated herself to serving diverse populations across various settings, including clinical, research, community-based, and educational environments. Her global experiences have broadened her perspectives and fuelled her commitment to social justice and equity. In 2017, she was honoured as one of the Alberta Council for Global Cooperation’s Top 30 Under 30 for her work in international and community development. She balances her career with a part-time role as a special education consultant.
As both a survivor of abuse and an individual managing chronic illness, she believes in the transformative power of nurturing and supportive relationships. She approaches her work with a blend of humour, curiosity, and a gentle demeanour. She aims to collaboratively create a secure space where hope and connection can flourish.
Beyond her professional endeavours, Stephanie enjoys spending time in nature, embarking on adventures, and cultivating her love of horseback riding. As a fibre artist, she can often be found singing away while working on her creative projects.
