NASA
Explaining in plain English what's new with America's space program (and why it matters) is what Stephanie does. She leads NASA's flagship social media team, which has conversations with the public and the media about all of the agency's activities across 14 interactive platforms. Stephanie co-authored a first edition "Let's Go" travel guide, oversaw news and features for the website of Peabody-award winning "Channel One News," and was recognized by Time for writing one of the “140 Best Twitter Feeds” for her work on the Curiosity Mars rover account at the Jet Propulsion Laboratory. Stephanie holds a bachelor's degree in history from Harvard, 17 Webby Awards, and two Emmys.
