Stephanie first moved to Australia in 2002 along with her husband Richard and her son Seve. She joined the Prestige team in March 2022 after working in Business Development in the soft furnishings industry for most of her career.
Stephanie spent many years caring for her father-in-law, who was also supported by Prestige carers. This gave her a unique perspective when starting to work with Prestige. After spending 10 months as a Carer Lead in the Bayside team, Stephanie moved into the Premium Space to become a Carer Lead.
She says she has always enjoyed working in customer-facing roles.
How do you unwind after a busy day?
Probably my most enjoyable thing to do is to walk in nature on the golf course. When I play golf, I cannot think about anything else. Walking by the sea has always helped me relax and every week I attend a Yoga Nidra class to help me chill out.
I also love listening to podcasts, and binge-watching Survivor!

I love working at Prestige because it is like a big family. I can learn so much from the other people I work with, young and not so young! We have a great vibe in the office, and I am very proud to be helping people every day.
