Stephanie joins Vervet with an extensive background in education and group travel. Formerly director of Performing Arts, theater director and teacher at Cape Henry Collegiate, Stephanie understands all the elements of working together in groups and has traveled nationally and internationally as a chaperone for the past two decades. Stephanie has always tripled checked every detail when it comes to her students because she believes that if you do your best to prepare for every situation you will handle all that comes at you with confidence and with the best possible outcome. She’s passionate about how Vervet keeps students safe and gives parents and chaperones more peace of mind because that is what she focused on most as an educator. Stephanie believes that if students feel safe and confident, they are more likely to push themselves out of their comfort zone and grow.
