Hi friend!

Welcome - it’s a pleasure to have you here. I’m Stephanie and here’s where you’ll find the writing I’m most proud of! I’ve been a writer for a long time… ever since two aliens, Zibble and Zip, made their debut back in the early 2000s, but here are the fancy qualifications I’ve acquired since then! I am a graduate of Yale University (where I did my B.A. in Political Science and my M.Div.). I have spoken at a range of events, including the American Academy of Religion and the Aspen Ideas Festival, as well as at local churches and other community events. I was the Editor in Chief of the Yale Daily News from 2015-2016, named a finalist in The Church Times’ 2022 Theology Slam, and most recently published my first set of Bible study notes in BRF’s ‘Guidelines’ (with more forthcoming in 2026).

I guess that’s the formal introduction, but you’ll find out much more about me through my writing.! If you’d like to get in touch, do use the contact form on my website or spend some time scouring the cafes in Oxfordshire - you’ll find me eventually!
