"My client and I are a team. By establishing trust and fostering open communication we are better equipped to achieve positive outcomes. I spend time with my clients to determine their needs and gain a deeper understanding of their goals, allowing me to take a flexible and creative approach to problem solving. Together we are able to achieve efficient resolution to the wide range of issues that my clients face."
Outside the Office
When Stefanie is out of the office she loves to travel, cook, and let loose her creative side in projects from gardening, to DIY renovations, to pyrography.
