Having started her career with 6 seasons directing Live TV at TVOntario, Stamp is known for efficiency, adaptability, her ability to "get the day", and bring back beautiful footage from any location. She has directed extensive unscripted and lifestyle content, including The SPACE (TVOntario), Family Feud Canada (CBC), and the after-shows for Murdoch Mysteries (CBC) and Between (Netflix).
Stamp started her career as an actor, which allows her to create deep rapport with talent of all ages. She has directed actors in performances that were nominated for multiple CSAs and a Daytime Emmy! Her own acting credits include roles on Locke & Key (Netflix), The Handmaid's Tale (Hulu), Hudson & Rex (CityTV), and Carmilla, the cult-hit webseries that won a Cannes Lion and got over 75 million views on YouTube. Stamp has improvised with the Second City Canadian National Touring Company, and voiced dozens of cartoon and video game characters, including roles for Disney, Ubisoft, and Cartoon Network. Stamp is also an experienced acting teacher and youth mentor.
Stamp's storytelling skill is deeply informed by her work as a writer, including two WGC- nominated episodes of Lockdown (Family Channel), and The Snoopy Show (AppleTV). Having studied Evolutionary Biology at the University of Toronto, Stamp has also served as a Science Communications Consultant at the Banff Centre and on Apple TV's Snoopy In Space. She has won a Toronto Arts Award for Excellence and Innovation in Theatre, and her writing on race and gender has gone so viral that CNN commissioned it for publication - twice!
Unrelatedly, Stamp once set a Guinness World Record by playing dodgeball for 36 hours without sleeping, an accomplishment she does not recommend!
