She was interested in various activities while attending a local high school, including playing sports such as volleyball and soccer, and appearing in school plays; Stephanie also dreamed of becoming a popular singer, wanting to follow in her father’s footsteps, but it didn’t take long for her to learn that she wasn’t talented enough for it.
