BIO

Stephanie is a Director of Client Engagement at VML Chicago. She holds a BA in communication from Oakwood University in Huntsville, AL and a MS in integrated marketing communications from Roosevelt University in Chicago.

Her dedication, commitment and more than 10 years of client service have been felt on a variety of brands, namely a host of Kraft Heinz brands, Comcast, Shop Your Way, Tazo, Tyson and Bomb Pop.

Outside of her passion for advertising, Stephanie has always been extremely active in mentorship; taking a personal interest in young people (ladies in particular) in her academic, professional and religious settings. She truly believes that it’s her duty to pour into others what’s been invested in her and knows the best vehicle to do that is through 1:1 interactions. As a result, she’s served on various committees for organizations focused on the emotional, professional and personal development of underserved youth throughout her life. Her activity in this realm has organically earned her titles of ‘mentor’, ‘intern supervisor’ and ‘designated adult’ for several young women. Titles she holds dear to her heart.

Stephanie is also a founding member of VML’s Inclusion & Diversity Council having spearheaded the initiative in the Chicago office facilitating numerous cultural events to further the Council’s work in the agency.

Stephanie’s other, more personal, passions include: cake decorating, crocheting and spending time with her family, especially her three beloved nieces.
