BIO


Hi there. I’m Stef.

I’m a freelance Director and Art Director; a hybrid creative that enjoys concepting ideas and bringing them to life with agencies and brands everywhere in the US and Canada. 

I live in a small town outside of Montréal, Quebec, et oui, je parle aussi le français, mais avec un gros accent.


When do you call me ?

1. When you need a senior, conceptual art director.
2. When you need a never-say-die production partner.
3. When you need a little of both.
