My name is Stephanie, my birthday is 8/11/87 and I teach music (elementary band and ukuleles!) in the public schools of California’s Central Coast.
I have a ginger husband, two cats, and a dog.
I enjoy playing music and currently play trumpet with the San Luis Obispo County Trumpet Alliance, Central City Swing in Orcutt, and in an unnamed duo with my friend on tenor sax. I play the bass clarinet in the Santa Ynez Valley Wind Ensemble. I attend chamber music workshops throughout the year on both clarinet and trumpet.
Other things I enjoy? Running, yoga, crafts, reading, writing, hiking. I love cooking plant-based meals and enjoy the vegan lifestyle.
