Someone I Would Gladly Hire Again and Again
"I originally hired Stephanie at KnowBe4 while building and expanding our global talent brand team. I was incredibly selective throughout the hiring process, reviewing well over 100 design portfolios before finding the level of talent and quality of work I was looking for. Stephanie stood out, and she quickly proved that I had made the right decision.
She has an exceptional eye for design, strong attention to detail, and an understanding of how creative work contributes to larger business objectives. She doesn’t just focus on making things look great; she understands the importance of delivering work that drives meaningful results.
Perhaps the strongest testament to my confidence in Stephanie is that after leaving KnowBe4 and establishing my own marketing agency, I sought opportunities to bring Stephanie onto projects involving design and talent branding. Her work had made such a strong impression on me that I wanted to continue working with her.
I recommend Stephanie without hesitation. Any organization fortunate enough to have her on its team will be gaining not only an outstanding creative talent but also a dedicated professional who makes the people and work around her better.”
— Kelly Barrena, CEO, Barrena Branding & Marketing · Former VP, Global Talent Brand & Outreach, KnowBe4
Creative Strategy + Execution
“Stephanie Wilson is one of the most incredible people I know. She is hardworking, passionate, and a true visionary. Everything Steph touches turns to gold.
It’s rare to work with someone who combines high-level creative strategy with seamless execution — and a ton of comedic relief. I looked forward to her memes of the day, her rework of a horrible Google Doc I threw my thoughts into, and her genuine love for branding, which is so clear in all the work she does.
She brings so many creative ideas to the table and is always thinking about how we can improve, analyze, and, most importantly, celebrate our branding.
From building global brand systems to driving impactful talent brand campaigns, her work speaks for itself. Steph’s impact on our talent brand at KnowBe4 was massive, and she will bring that same energy and expertise to her next team.
I cannot recommend her highly enough.”
— Taylor Morozovich, Global Talent Brand & Outreach Manager
"Stephanie's willingness and creativity set her apart from many of the individuals I have worked with over my career. She routinely would go the extra mile and bring new ideas or concepts to the table without being asked.
One look at her portfolio and you will be pleased by the breadth of her skills. She is an enormous asset to any team and I highly recommend her."
— Drew Graef, SVP Global Talent
