Hi I'm Stephanie!

Thanks for checking out my work!

I was born and raised in Memphis, Tennessee and became interested in art so I could illustrate the stories I’d write on my parents’ typewriter. I still write quite a bit, as well as draw comics, and make films. I currently work as a graphic designer at Wingard Creative in Jacksonville, Florida and serve on the board of the local AIGA Chapter. I got my BFA from the University of Tennessee, after studying for two years at The School of the Art Institute of Chicago.

I consider myself a multi-faceted designer with experience in branding, print and editorial design, web design,
illustration, copywriting, film, and animation
.

When I’m not working I’m usually writing novels, doodling comics, and playing video games every chance I get.

  • Brand Strategy
  • Corporate Identity
  • Print and Editorial design
