"Steph was my colleague and the Head of Marketing for my entire tenure at JunoDx. During our time working together, I had the opportunity to observe and learn from her unique strengths and contributions to the company.

Steph's vast experience in SEO and data-driven decision-making was evident, making her an invaluable asset to the company as a whole. She is a highly accountable individual, and was always diligent in seeking outside expertise when necessary, such as working with external agencies and eventually choosing to hire an in-house graphic designer to elevate our brand and marketing efforts. With Steph's past executive experience, she always brought a big-picture perspective to the table, keeping the company's best interests in mind.

I genuinely appreciate the support Steph offered me and my team during our time together at Juno. On a personal level, I admired her willingness to provide mentorship and guidance as we navigated the challenges of Juno's closing. I am extremely grateful for the knowledge and experience she shared with me since day 1.

I confidently recommend Steph for Marketing Director positions, particularly within the life sciences industry. Her expertise will undoubtedly make her a valuable asset to any organization."

"I worked with Stephanie in the Global Demand Gen org at Symantec, where she ran all aspects of digital marketing, webinars, and email marketing. Her knowledge of PPC, SEO, and other aspects of digital marketing is second to none. She was my go-to expert on all things digital. I would highly recommend her to any org looking for a digital marketing leader."

Jaimie Bakas

Sr. Director, Demand Generation

"I am so grateful for the opportunity to work for Stephanie at Symantec. I've learned so much from her in such a short amount of time. Stephanie came into a team that had many high performers, but no process, strategy or foundation to run effective and efficient digital demand campaigns.

Stephanie knew not only how to set up the team for success, but how to manage budgets and expectations with leadership in order to demonstrate value to the business. Her expertise in performance media and digital team, agency and executive management is extensive and impressive.

I would jump at the chance to work with Stephanie again, she motivated me to always learn and helped me realize the exceptional work that I always knew I was capable of."

Varun Kohli

CMO, Board Member

"Reporting to Stephanie and getting a glimpse into the brilliant mind of not only a highly capable marketer, but a masterful operations executive, was an inimitable treat. In addition to that expertise, Stephanie possesses an array of rare gifts that combine to make her incredibly unique and versatile. After all, overseeing nine different departments is no small feat.

Stephanie is extremely logical and analytical, has a discerning eye for talent, and the ability to distinguish between what looks good on paper versus what's actually going to work or be the best fit, which she's able to apply to both personnel and processes. She also has a gift and a passion for coaching people.

I'm fortunate and grateful that I had the opportunity to work with her at REQ Digital. I am extremely selective of whom I choose to admire, but I absolutely admire Stephanie."

Josh Bell

Vice President, Paid Media

"I have been tremendously fortunate to have worked with Stephanie as a fellow employee at a past agency, and then to have had her as a client of my own business while at Woodruff-Sawyer & Co. Working with Stephanie is always a pleasure as she brings invaluable insight, sharp intelligence, a collaborative spirit, and witty humor to every project and interaction.

She never fails to impress me with her knowledge, and the confidence she exudes is truly admirable. Stephanie is a hard worker, and goes above and beyond to ensure things are done right, and done well. She also strives to ensure that everyone involved in her projects has the resources and gets the support they need. Her team is very important to her, and it shows.

In addition to her consummate professionalism, I also greatly appreciate Stephanie's direct communication style. Too often, misunderstanding arises from ambiguity. I enjoy talking and working with Stephanie because she's honest and forthright, and there's never any question as to where anyone stands. It's refreshing, and something to be grateful for.

Stephanie is also one of the kindest people I've ever met, a trait that is too-often absent in the business world, and it only enhances her effectiveness. I would welcome the opportunity to work with her anytime, anywhere, on just about anything. And any company or organization lucky enough to bring Stephanie on board will be all the better for it."

"I had the privilege of working with Stephanie for two years at Woodruff-Sawyer and I can honestly say they were the most rewarding of my career to date. When it comes to leadership, Stephanie is the gold standard. It's rare to find someone that is not only an expert in their field, but is also able to lead and shape a team. Stephanie relates to people with the same ease in which she tackles the digital marketing space. She spearheaded our firm's rebranding initiative while simultaneously developing our staff to refine our talents and increase productivity. I truly appreciate what she has allowed us to accomplish, both as a company, and an in-house marketing team.

When Stephanie came on board, she hit the ground running. Stephanie worked tirelessly to identify gaps in our marketing campaigns and immediately put a strategy in place to fill the holes. Stephanie implemented the Net Promoter Score (NPS) Survey so we could measure and improve client relations. This allowed the firm to collect candid feedback, address client pain points and deliver solutions that were a true match for each client. She gave WS&Co. the ability to continue having honest conversations with its clients, and it's an initiative that we are continuing to drive forward in her absence.

In addition to NPS, Stephanie brought in a digital marketing agency to help us conduct a competitive brand audit. This was later followed by a corporate brand refresh, website redesign and an SEO & web analytics strategy. Stephanie led these initiatives with great passion and dedication. Her ability to strategize and bring these intiatives to fruition have allowed us to take ownership of our individual contributor roles and elevate our brand.

While at Woodruff-Sawyer, Stephanie mentored me and helped me carve out a detailed career path. Her open door management style allowed me to have honest discussions about my career goals and passions. She was my biggest champion and never hesitated to make sure I was taken care of. Stephanie's the type of person you want in your corner - she'll be the one to always make sure things get done and that they get done right. Working with Stephanie has reminded me why I decided to pursue a career in design/marketing. I will miss seeing her every day, but I am grateful for having the opportunity to have learned so much from her."

Amanda Gaisford

Sr. Graphic & UX Designer

"It has been my pleasure working with Stephanie for the past two years at Woodruff-Sawyer & Co. Our daily interactions included company-wide projects and day-to-day managerial interface. She has always surprised me with her focus to detail and her drive to succeed.

Stephanie is a great VP of Marketing. She has always met project deadlines and achieved her goals on time and on budget. Her ability to break down a complex project into simple steps is amazing. I also admire her artistic views of marketing. By combining her project management style and her marketing experience, her deliverables have always given people the “wow” effect.

Stephanie’s management style is also inspirational. One of her old staff said “Stephanie was the best” and “they lost someone amazing.” Furthermore, her management style earned the respect from her peers and her staff. A quote from her staff says it all, “You are the best boss I have ever had, and I am so grateful we were able to work together when we did. You have had a profound impact on my life.”

Stephanie is a top-performing marketing professional. She is smart, dedicated, and hard-working. I am honored to have worked with Stephanie for the past few years."

She worked on our longest-tenured, largest account -- a global high-tech company with operations in nearly every country. Stephanie excelled at setting expectations with our customer, driving high value services, and ensuring the highest levels of customer satisfaction.

Stephanie was also valuable to our strategy and roadmap -- providing feedback on the needs of our largest client and helping us with forecasting, both in the US and globally. She is an outstanding digital marketing account manager for large, complex agency services."
