About Me

Stefanie was born and raised in various places in Southern Michigan, USA. She attended High School at Center Line HS in Detroit, where she was presented with many awards for her vast artistic talents, which ranged from painting, drawing, all the way to metal working.

In 2001 she attended Lansing Community College to become a High School Art teacher, but her life long plans were changed when she decided she wanted to do something a bit more personal with her life.

In 2002 she moved with her husband to Jacksonville FL and took some time off college to concentrate on her personal art and life.

She went back to school in 2004 at Florida Community College of Jacksonville to receive her A.S. Degree in Digital Multimedia/Computer Animation Technologies.  During her time there she was awarded a full talent grant for her digital designing skills, and was the founder and President of the FCCJ Anime Club. She graduated May 5th 2007 with a 3.44 GPA and was placed on the Dean’s/President’s List numerous times.

After graduation, Stefanie went on to work for Web.com as a Custom Web Designer, and stayed with the company for over a year. It was after she had found out she was going to have a baby in the Fall of 2008, did she decide to move back to Michigan with her husband to be with family.

After she left Web.com at the end of December 2008, Stefanie gave birth to a beautiful baby girl in April 2009. Since this time, she has been freelancing and displaying her works at the Haze Art Gallery in Lansing, MI. She has also been traveling to several conventions around the Northeastern United States showing off her handmade plush dolls and Japanese inspired infant clothing line.

Stefanie is always looking for freelance work in the Lansing, MI area, either digital, plush, and/or painting.
