I’m a 2x Hodgkin’s lymphoma and stem cell transplant survivor. I’ve been through some seriously tough shit and I hope that my art, cards and gifts can be a source of comfort for others going through similar situations.

I was initially diagnosed in 2019, two months into my marriage. I relapsed in 2021, which led me to undergoing a stem cell transplant. While I was going through chemo, radiation and everything in between, my art and shop became an escape and outlet for me. As I fulfilled orders for StephKay Designs in my hospital room, I realized that there can be light in the situations that feel impossible. Through my work, I normalize the tough parts of life and open conversations about them - making them feel a little less heavy.
