Ehhsteph (she/her) is originally from New Britian, CT. Her work is inspired by horror films and special effects. Through sculpting and fabricating she focuses on making one-of-a-kind mugs and other oddities, that showcase her childhood obsessions, admiration for movies and her Peruvian heritage.
Her education in visual communications and advanced character design for special effects has allowed her to create pieces that tell a story and create a little magic. You can check out Ehhsteph’s work at her website ehhsteph.com.

A note about these special episodes: Most if not all of the special episodes you’ll be listening to over the next several weeks will be me interviewing pals that have been storytellers in the past for my show A Little Bit of Death. A Little Bit of Death is an annual storytelling show that centers BIPOC and queer voices around the themes of grief, letting go, and transformation.
This year I was invited to present at a summit pertaining to the work I do with A Little Bit of Death, so I who better to join me in speaking on it than the pals that have gone through the process. I reached out to some and asked if I could interview them on their experience with the show, what impact it had, what they shared, why sharing these stories matter. With their permission, I’m sharing the audio from those interviews I’ll be using for my presentation at the summit. One of the last episodes I had recorded before my latest break was about following and following through on your wild ideas. A Little Bit of Death was one of those wild ideas for me and it’s blossomed since the first show 7 years ago. This year, it’ll be held over 2 nights in Hartford, CT at Carriage House Theater on the evenings of Friday November 11th and Saturday November 12th. I thought I’d drop these special episodes leading up to the show this year and I hope you enjoy them and, obviously, join us at the show!
