Stephanie Ogrodnik graduated from Drexel University in 2013, with a Bachelor’s degree in Screenwriting and Playwriting. She was hired that same year as an assistant to Lionsgate’s President of Domestic Theatrical Distribution, Richie Fay. She credits this transition into the entertainment industry to the Drexel in L.A. Program and co-op experience, during which she was hired by international sales agent MultiVisionnaire Pictures to represent the company at the 2012 Cannes Film Festival. She was also a literary intern for Evolution Entertainment and a correspondent for genre website QuietEarth.us.

Currently, she continues to work at Lionsgate as an Exhibitor Relations Coordinator for the Central U.S. territory.  She also remains active in the Los Angeles community volunteering with organizations such as KCRW and Sojourn Services.
