Stephanie Mansell


Professional info
I can truly be described in three words: nosey, creative and personable. Luckily, all three qualities are great for a journalist to have. I am a producer looking to give a viewer as much out of a newscast as they will allow me. I like to share with the world -- or at least the surrounding area -- any and all information.
