Team

Stephanie grew up in her parents' restaurant in Gordes, Provence. She spent her childhood picking up jars of olive oil at the mill, harvesting wild herbs, and helping in the kitchen and the dining room. After earning a BA in Languages and Economy at the University of Aix-en-Provence, Stephanie took time off to travel the world. She then moved to Paris and joined a PR agency, Interel, right across from Ladurée, the temple of macarons. After two years of event production and media campaigns, she integrated Groupe Victoire, the second largest insurance and finance group in Europe. For four years, she managed the internal and external communications, working in France, Germany, Denmark, and Italy. While building the company's image, she used every trip as an opportunity to educate her palate and collect new recipes.
She moved to New York in 1991, and served as international director of Creamer Dickson Basford/EURO RSCG, one of the top ten PR-Marketing agencies in the country (now Magnet Communications). She worked on national and international accounts such as Sodexho, SmithKline Beecham and Wyeth Ayer International.
Her passion for PR and her love of food were finally reunited when she created her agency, Teuwen One Image, in 1994. Devoted to food, wine/beverage, and hospitality, the agency has launched and developed brands and chefs such as Loire Valley Wines, O&CO. Olive Oils, The Chocolate Show, Chef Bill Telepan, and SerendipiTea. Stephanie was able to combine her expertise in big company strategies with the hands-on, personalized work of a boutique agency. Her clients have grown from unknown chef to three-star, from local brand to national, and from 1-digit to 2-digit sales increases.
A native of France, she is bilingual in French and English, fluent in Italian and has working knowledge of Spanish. Stephanie is an avid cook, and her recipes have appeared in cookbooks and publications. She has led more than 50 seminars on wine all over the country. She has been featured on the Food Network show Behind the Bash with host Giada DeLaurentiis. She is an active member of the Public Relations Society of America and the New York Women's Culinary Alliance, for which she chairs the wine committee. Her other passion is horseback riding.

Account Executive Kayt Mathers joined the team at Teuwen One Image in 2008 and works with both food and wine accounts. Wine was always at the dinner table growing up, and her college studies in Geography quickly became a tool for understanding different terroirs. After an internship at a well-respected wine importer in Portland, OR, she moved to New York City and began working in wine retail, first at Vino in Gramercy and later at Thirst Wine Merchants in Fort Greene, Brooklyn. From helping customers with food and wine pairings to building cellar-worthy collections, she quickly built a loyal customer following. She earned the Advanced Certificate from the International Wine Center in 2007 and has supplemented her classroom learning with wine country visits in Europe and the Americas. She also co-chairs a wine tasting club called the Brooklyn Wine Share that meets every month. Kayt is fluent in French and Spanish, and has working knowledge of German and Italian.

Senior Food Consultant Jennifer Anderson joined Teuwen One Image in 2006 after a six-year tenure as Managing Editor at one of the world's most popular cooking websites, Allrecipes.com. For an audience of over 5 million monthly readers, she wrote and assigned hundreds of articles and newsletters on a wide variety of cooking, entertaining, and nutrition topics. She also co-produced two cookbook series in conjunction with Oxmoor House and Ten Speed Press, and collaborated with marketing & sales teams to generate creative solutions to partner needs.
Jennifer brings with her an intimate knowledge of consumers' eating and shopping habits, as well as an insider's understanding of the restaurant and catering trades from her years as a professional cook. An English degree from Whitman College--a 125 year old liberal arts institution in the heart of the burgeoning Washington wine country--plus a Culinary Arts degree from the Art Institute of Seattle have given Jennifer a strong foundation behind her passion for cooking, researching, and writing about food. While Jennifer likes to eat pretty much everything under the sun, she has particular weaknesses for barbecue, craft beer, bourbon, leafy greens, pasta, and barnyard-y red wines. She is an active member of the New York Women's Culinary Alliance and Slow Food New York. When Jennifer is not cooking, food shopping or eating, she likes to mix things up by kickboxing, riding her bike (usually to outer-borough dining destinations), and playing the banjo. Jennifer is currently working on a book project, and is freelancing on a regular basis for the agency.

Katy Keiffer, Senior Advisor has built her food media expertise over nearly a decade of working with such culinary luminaries as Anthony Bourdain. As a Senior Account Executive at Morse Partners, a boutique public relations firm, Katy specialized in creating and coordinating publicity for author tours, working with Bourdain from his first blockbuster hit Kitchen Confidential to his most recently published No Reservations. Her associations also included years of work with the Food Network, touring talent such as Rachael Ray as well as the staff behind the scenes for their series of Food Network Kitchens Cookbooks. Many years of producing radio programs and a talk show in New York City helps to account for her volubility and persuasive style.
Prior to becoming a publicist in the publishing and food industries, Katy spent nearly twenty years working in New York as a cook, caterer and butcher,. She trained in France at a small bistro restaurant, La Dariole, where she was properly and promptly humbled by weeks of plucking and eviscerating game birds, before being allowed anywhere near the stove.
Currently a contributing editor to Food Arts Magazine, Katy is most interested in the business of food, and particularly focuses on the meat industry. Other interests include a passion for the visual arts -a legacy of a year of study in London at Sotheby's- and an abiding love for New York which impels her to roam the city iooking at great architecture, sampling cocktails in hotel bars, and finding fabulous food markets.
Katy is still an avid cook, entertaining as much as possible, and experimenting in different cuisines. Eventually she hopes to train her teenage daughter to produce meals and earn her keep. Katy has traveled extensively in the United States and Western Europe and is fluent in French.

Cheese: Vacherin Mont D'or, but partial to any strongly flavored stinky cheese, particularly from Burgundy.
