Stephanie grew up in a family that was very involved in ministry. She was deeply sensitive to the voice of the Holy Spirit as a young child and began her walk at the age of three. She was filled with the Spirit and baptized when she was twelve and immediately felt a strong desire and calling to ministry. As time passed, that calling intensified through her late teenage years, especially during ministry at her local Assemblies of God youth camp.
All through her formative years, she enjoyed and developed her passion for music. Upon graduation from high school, she attended Evangel University where she studied music education for one year. After that, she transferred to Oral Roberts University where she met her future husband, John. She graduated in 2005 with her degree in Music Technology and Worship Leadership. Before graduation, she was very involved in Fervent Fire and in the founding of Real Church, serving as Music Pastor with John.
Along with leading the congregation into praise and worship, another passion she carries is to teach others the joy of music. After teaching private music lessons in a large studio, she started "The Academy of the Arts" to help this passion be realized. Not long after, she took over the leadership role at Tulsa Homeschool Choir, later adding in art and dance classes. She always thought music ministry was her main calling, but God surprised her when He also called her to teach at True Foundation Learning Center. What started out as a way to educate her children, blossomed into a passion to see the next generation educated in the principles of God, to truly give them a foundation upon which to stand.
She and her husband, John, have two daughters and reside in Inola, OK.
