Stepheni Curran is a children's book author, a pediatric speech-language pathologist, and a mother. She grew up in Antigo, Wisconsin; attended UW-Stevens Point; and currently resides in Gresham, Wisconsin. As a child, Stepheni initially struggled with reading and writing. With the guidance of her mom and her elementary teachers, Stepheni learned strategies to improve her skills. This inspired Stepheni to pursue a career in the educational field and to someday write her own children's books to positively impact the younger generation. Stepheni is the author of the interactive Rock On, Kindness! book series, which was published by Orange Hat Publishing, with the first book's debut in February 2018. She has presented across the state of Wisconsin for community events, book festivals, school author visits, and more. Wherever Stepheni presents, she connects with her audience of all ages to promote life lessons about kindness, friendship, compassion for others, and empathy. When Stepheni isn't working, writing, or presenting, she enjoys spending time with her family. Together, they play a variety of sports, camp, swim, kayak, and entertain their two pups whenever the Wisconsin weather permits!
