Stephanie grew up on a farm in rural South Carolina, raising dogs, cats, birds, horses, goats, chickens, ducks- the full farm experience! She discovered a love for connecting with animals while working with dogs and horses from a young age, including training her family’s dressage horses as a teenager. After obtaining a BA in Psychology, Stephanie transitioned her passion for animals into her professional portfolio by working as a kennel manager at her local humane society. In addition to her years spent working with animals, Stephanie’s professional background also includes extensive management and customer service experience. When Stephanie isn’t working with her horses or spending time with her dogs, she’s often reading books, favoring psychology-based nonfiction and sci-fi/thriller fiction reads.
