About
Hi, I'm Stephanie. I turn good ideas into websites and tools that work.
CreativeTech Studio is my creative technology studio. I bring more than 20 years of digital, publishing, and marketing experience to every project, and I always start with strategy before choosing the technology.

My story
The tools change. The job doesn't.
My background is in digital publishing and marketing. Over two decades that grew into strategy, UX, WordPress engineering, and now AI systems. Through all of it, the work has stayed the same: figure out what people actually need, then build the simplest thing that gets them there.
Some of my clients have been with me a long time. I've looked after Grand Tots Learning Center's website for nearly 20 years, taking it from a hand-coded site to a WordPress platform with online enrollment, secure payments, and a parent portal.
When you work with CreativeTech Studio, you work with me. I scope the project, design it, build it, and stay with it after launch.
How I work
Strategy before technology
01
Understand the problem first
I look at your site the way a first-time visitor would, then name what's getting in their way.
02
Keep what already works
I build beside your existing systems, so nothing that runs today has to stop.
03
Tie it to a number
Every recommendation connects to something you care about: bookings, inquiries, or hours saved.
04
Fixed, clear pricing
Defined options with fixed prices. No open-ended hourly billing and no surprise invoices.

What clients say
“What began as a simple, static website has grown into a dynamic WordPress platform that empowers our staff, engages our parents, and reflects the heart of our mission.”
“She transformed our outdated portal into a modern, resident-friendly hub that makes accessing documents, events, and community news effortless.”
Beyond client work
What I make when no one's asking
Picture book
With a Little Help & a Lot of Heart
I wrote this book in memory of my daughter, Sophia Grace, and for the Down syndrome community that brought so much joy into our lives. It's a story about inclusion and showing up for each other, and I took it from first draft to finished print myself.
Studio project
The 16–0 IU Project
An interactive look back at Indiana's undefeated 2025 national championship football season. I conceived, designed, built, and launched it.
Off the clock
Golf and a lot of tinkering
You'll find me on the golf course or building small AI experiments to see what's possible. The best ones end up in the AI Lab.
Have a project in mind?
Tell me what you're trying to do. I'll tell you honestly whether I'm the right fit, and what I'd do first.
