Work Style

Growing up in a mixed-race family, Stephanie developed an innate sense of curiosity and ability to empathize with people from all walks of life. As the military spouse of a now retired Senior Chief, she has had the pleasure of living in California, Hawaii, and Texas. Her diverse life experiences enable her to connect with people on a human level. As a result, employees and witnesses feel comfortable speaking openly with Stephanie about their experiences and feel heard. In turn, Stephanie can complete her investigations with all the information she needs. Stephanie’s clients describe her as direct, thoughtful, and communicative.
