“The world is a book and those who do not travel read only one page.” St. Augustine
When she’s not conducting research, Stephanie and her husband love to travel, attend live music performances, and go biking. As an avid reader, she is never without a book in her bag and a stack of books waiting on her nightstand. She developed an obsession with French Bulldogs after adopting one 4 years ago and follows more Frenchies than people on social media.
