I was born & raised on an island with hurricanes, mosquitos and power outages. So when all you have is darkness and a flashlight 🔦 coming up with ideas quickly and resourcefully is second nature to me.

With 15+ years of experience, I’ve art directed for fashion icons like Vogue and Teen Vogue, as well as creative powerhouses at GREY and McCann New York. Starting my career in NYC, I’ve developed campaigns for global brands across multiple markets. Since relocating to Amsterdam, I’ve collaborated with LePub, Publicis, Monks, DEPT, and Boomerang. Today, I work as a freelance Social-First Creative Director, creating bold stories that spark conversation and speak the language of today across social and digital platforms.

Creativity has always been at my core. I find it in new cities, languages, painting, cooking, and spontaneous hikes. I seek experiences that keep my ideas fresh and connected to people everywhere. I’m driven by curiosity, love collaborating with like-minded people, and still find it magical to see ideas come to life from paper to screen.

I love a good story. As my friend André Alves Afonso once put it: “Start talking to Stephanie more often and you’ll stop watching Netflix.” Let’s grab a drink and create one together.

Languages: English, Spanish, en natuurlijk een beetje Nederlands (geen standard expat 😉)
