COMMUNITY IS STRENGTH

I’ve known Stephanie Kontzamanys and witnessed her work ethic for many years when she was leading sales at Univision. We often referred to her as “la griega” (Greek) for her extensive work in and understanding of the Hispanic Marketplace.
She is a talented professional of integrity who knows how to listen and help her clients grow their business. Stephanie enjoys a strong collaborative relationship with her clients driving a relentless team leadership style.

She has been an integral part of MDC for years and serves on the boards’ Alumni committee where she consistently brings creative ideas and solid business strategies to the team. She is truly passionate in her pursuit of excellence and goes the extra mile to deliver on her word.

I am honored to know her and more importantly to be a very satisfied customer of her work.

Stephanie Kontzamanys and Skala Connections have been tremendous partners for Miami Dade College (MDC). As a proud MDC alumna, Stephanie is a staunch supporter of education and her community.

Stephanie has generously donated her time and resources to support MDC’s annual I AM MDC giving day campaign by leveraging her deep-rooted connections with South Florida to raise awareness and support for student scholarships.

Stephanie has successfully and promptly secured marketing and media outlets from stations and outdoor media companies because she is well respected and well-known in the media & marketing community.  Thanks to Stephanie’s creative talents and resourceful collaborative leadership, she has been an integral member of MDC’s Alumni Council. She is an amazing catalyst, a visionary, and a true partner that delivers.
