Our Team

Stephanie is driven by a deep commitment to strengthening the community through trust, collaboration, and action.

Her approach is relational and her experience is rooted in centering the people most impacted to have voice and power in the decisions that affect their lives. Stephanie is a strong advocate for nonprofits and community-led groups across our region.

Throughout Stephanie’s career, she has worked to build alliances, shift systems, and take action toward equitable outcomes with a focus on health equity and racial justice. She brings 15 years of local and state policy experience focused on addressing social and structural determinants that drive inequities. Prior to this role, Stephanie served as a public health strategist at Winnebago County Health Department. Stephanie’s career also includes eight years of nonprofit experience as both an executive director and grassroots community organizer serving the Oshkosh, Fox Valley, and Green Bay region.

Stephanie has called Oshkosh her home for over 25 years and enjoys walking her golden retriever through local parks, joining in the Slow Roll community bike rides with friends, and supporting the Oshkosh Food Co-op that she worked with many amazing community leaders to build. Stephanie has a master’s degree in Public Administration and a bachelor’s degree in Human Services Leadership from the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh.

Amanda is a mission-driven professional with a background in philanthropy, higher education, and program administration. She has extensive experience managing programs, strengthening operations, and building cross-sector relationships that support effective implementation and continuous improvement. Guided by curiosity and a commitment to equity, Amanda approaches her work as a life-long learner, focused on building processes and partnerships that help organizations do their best work and expand their impact. She is especially energized by work that addresses root causes and helps communities move from short-term solutions to more durable, systems-level change.

Outside of work, Amanda is a wife and mother who enjoys reading, traveling and musical performances. She’s a lifelong learner at heart and is always collecting new ideas that shape how she shows up in her work and community. She values time with family and friends and can often be found planning her next trip or looking for her next great book or podcast.
