She is a born-and-raised Beltway insider, and life brought her to New Jersey. She started working with the team as a freelance copy editor, started writing more, and learned that New Jersey does, in fact, have the best pizza and bagels in all the land. When she and her husband moved back to the DC area, she brought TLG along and is working on The Fairfax Girl, TLG's first licensee. Stephanie has a background in public policy, working for nearly 20 years in and around the federal government and is a licensed attorney.
