Stephanie Hendrixson Executive Editor
Stephanie (Monsanty) Hendrixson reports on 3D printing technology and applications as executive editor for Additive Manufacturing. She is also co-host of The Cool Parts Show, a video series that highlights unique, unusual and weird 3D printed parts, and co-host and creator of the AM Radio podcast.
Stephanie got her start in manufacturing media in 2012, through an internship with AM's sister publication Modern Machine Shop, and continues to contribute to MMS as a guest blogger. In 2019 Stephanie was named among Temboo’s 20 Women in Manufacturing That Are Influencing the Industry. She is the local ambassador for the Cincinnati chapter of Women in 3D Printing (Wi3DP). In 2023, Stephanie served as Industry track leader for Women in Printing’s TIPE Conference and delivered a keynote address on the state of the industry; she previously co-presented at TIPE in 2022.
Stephanie holds a B.A. in English literature and history from the University of Mount Union, as well as an M.A. in professional writing from the University of Cincinnati. She currently serves on the UC Professional Writing Advisory Board. Stephanie is an avid runner, food enthusiast and sourdough baker.
