Meet Stephanie DiMaria, our new Capital Fellows Coordinator! Read a bit about Stephanie below:
Stephanie is originally from the great state of Michigan, but moved here post-undergrad for a teaching job. She has an MABS degree from Reformed Theological Seminary and is blatantly imitating Bill Fullilove as she works towards a PhD in Semitic Languages at Catholic University.
Stephanie is the oldest of six siblings, and the great loves of her life are her seven nieces and nephews. She also loves traveling and exploring new places, and is chronically incapable of cooking for less than 10 people at a time.
