Stef Etow

Stef Etow is a writer, curator, and creator of the Slow Branding Sessions, an online sanctuary for creative empaths craving a more sustainable practice for shaping their brand. Her background is in Art History, with an MA from the University of Chicago and a BA from the University of Notre Dame, and her career in the arts began at the Victoria & Albert Museum in London, followed by the Whitney Museum in New York. She has worked as a creative strategist and art director on marketing campaigns for brands such as Curology, Hint, Kimpton Hotels, Nespresso USA, and J.Crew, among others.

For the past 12 years, Stef has guided women and nonbinary community leaders in reawakening their sensory awareness while slowly unearthing a more integrated expression of who they are as storytellers. Her work is uniquely shaped by the way she infuses online spaces with a tactility that inspires people to shift their gaze from the screen to their surroundings.
