Working in the field of Hospitality Design for the past 24 years, Stephanie aims to see the beauty in a narrative driven design. Enticing stories are present everywhere, but how you dive into them is where the art of design truly comes from. She wants to capture a space, build the interior architecture, the texture, the contrasts, and forms that make spaces all come together into one great field of beauty. Over her career, she has specialized in resorts, hotels, casinos, bars and restaurant all over the US. Beyond design, she enjoys guiding and mentoring the next generation of designers to push the boundaries of design and to seek the create details that make projects memorable.
