HI, I'M STEPHIE ✨
i'm a 'tradigital' creative director and writer at monks (fka media.monks) in los angeles.
I was born and raised in Washington, DC, where I enjoyed piano, reading, and apparently brand storytelling. Here's me at age 6 winning a county-wide advertising award for an anti-smoking campaign poster: "From coughin' to coffin."( It was the '90s, man! Puns won awards back then.)
It took me about 20 more years to break into advertising. In between, I graduated with honors from Tufts University with a degree in philosophy, charted at #15 on rock radio, toured the country with my band, and fulfilled my extremely mild lifelong dream of living in Canada.
When I'm not making ads, I like writing music, hiking with my dog, overanalyzing "The Bachelor," and threatening to write a book.
Let's be friends! stephiecoplan@gmail.com
