e-commerce brand for the past 10 years.

During the Covid era the paints came out again slowly over time and when she & her partner Jay took an apartment in the west Chelsea neighborhood of NYC, the art bug came out full force as her fashion brand is finding its feet and Stephanie has been able to dig into her art from a new space in her life.
