Steph was born raised on the East Coast in the metropolitan area. She lived between New York and New Jersey for the first 30 years of her life.

Brooklyn is the city that changed her life. It was the first city where she leased her own apartment without her father cosigning on the lease. She went from Corporate America where she worked a 9-5 sales executive job in the fashion industry. Next she moved into a commission based fitness position, and eventually spread her wings to owning a full fledged self-employed fitness business.

She found CrossFit at Bushwick CrossFit where the owner took her in from athlete to coach. At Bushwick CrossFit she found her passion for weightlifting through her friend and colleague. She then began coaching and specializing in weightlifting herself. Steph hustled daily working multiple jobs to fuel her passions - it was a HUSTLE.

Brooklyn broke her, but Brooklyn made her. Without that city chewing her up and spitting her out she would never be the person she is today. So to commemorate the place the shaped her, she decided to name the company after the very place that ignited her passions.
