Stephanie originally hails from near Portland, Oregon and now makes her home near Portland, Maine. She holds a PhD in Theological Ethics from Boston College (2019), where her interdisciplinary research focused on the ties between Christian theology and trauma, particularly in the case of pharmaceutical memory modification. Stephanie's interest in such work has its roots in her "other" career as a social worker (MTS/MSW, Boston University 2011), wherein she has practiced diverse service delivery, grant writing, and non-profit management for nearly a decade. Interweaving both her non-profit and theological expertise, she now serves as the Executive Director of the Boston Theological Interreligious Consortium (BTI), and lectures in ethics and theology at Boston College and the University of Southern Maine. She lives in Biddeford, Maine with her husband and rescue dog, EmmyLou.
