Bio
Joanne Bridges
I have known Stephanie for the past 10 years and have always found her to be honourable, trustworthy and hard working. She has a refreshingly honest approach but is also compassionate and sensitive. She is enthusiastic when taking on new challenges and is calm and unflappable when working under pressure. She has shown great strength of character in difficult situations and I would consider her both independent and a good team player. She is also sociable and fun to be around. I have no hesitation whatsoever in recommending her and she would be a fantastic asset to any organisation.
