Stephanie Levich is the Co-Author of From the Start: A Book about Love and Making Families, and the President and Founder of Family Match Consulting, an internationally renowned fertility consulting firm based in Los Angeles that specializes in egg/ sperm donation and surrogacy. She began her career in the field over 20 years ago with a desire to help people like her parents who adopted Stephanie at birth. After working in the field for10 years, Stephanie was diagnosed with unexplained infertility and IVF is what ultimately helped her conceive her two miracles.
Because of Stephanie’s personal background and decades-long experience in the field, parents often ask for her guidance when talking with their children about their conception and birth stories. Stephanie’s parents introduced her to her adoption story before she could understand the word itself, framing it as a celebration of love and family. Those early conversations shaped her understanding of how she came into this world in a healthy and positive way. Stephanie hopes that From the Start will help other parents do the same.
