CREATOR PROFILE

Stephanie Castillo

Scientist, Founder
Working from Nashville, Stephanie bridges two professional worlds — the academic rigour of a doctoral programme in science communication and the entrepreneurial energy of a digital media company she founded to solve a problem she personally experienced. Her content is built on the premise that representation changes what students believe is possible, and Phuture Doctors is the platform through which she tests that hypothesis at scale. She approaches every partnership with the same methodological care she applies to research: clear objectives, real impact, and measurable outcomes.

EXPERIENCE WITH PROPS

Stephanie's portfolio spans science communication, educational storytelling, and STEM representation content. Her work serves audiences of students, parents, and educators navigating the college application process, career exploration, and the often opaque world of professional science. She produces editorial and video content that makes complex subjects accessible without flattening them, with a particular gift for humanising the scientists and professionals she profiles.

Subject Matter

Education, science communication, and STEM representation. Stephanie's subject matter expertise spans the full arc of the educational journey — from college preparation and financial literacy to career pathways in science and medicine — consistently centring the experiences of students from backgrounds underrepresented in these fields.

Content Formats

Editorial storytelling, short-form video profiles, and digital media campaigns for educational audiences. Stephanie produces content that functions as both journalism and advocacy — each piece tells a story while making a structural argument about who gets to be a scientist, a doctor, or a professional in STEM.
