Stephanie combines her passion for music, the creative arts, love for America, and professional experience in content creation at House of Riverenza, a publishing imprint and record label she created in collaboration with her mother M. Carolina Bento in 2021. House of Riverenza’s mission is to publish both artful creative writing that inspires readers to live life with hope as well as produce inspirational music.

As a cellist, Stephanie seeks to create a new sound by reinventing familiar songs and putting a modern twist on classic American tunes and spiritual hymns, including “The Star Spangled Banner / Amazing Grace,” “It Is Well With My Soul,” and “America the Beautiful.” Her debut album will be released July 4, 2024 on all major music streaming platforms. 

Stephanie’s music has been featured in online publications, including Songxplode, New Indie Radar, and Nagamag, as well as playlists worldwide. 

Her creative writing can be found on Substack, where she writes a weekly devotional and meditations on faith, creativity, history, and other inspirational content.
