Biography

Blessed Stephana de Quinzanis, also known as Stefana Quinzani or Stephanie de Quinzanis, was born in Soncino, Italy in the year 1457 to deeply religious parents. From a young age, she was immersed in a spiritual environment as her father became a Dominican tertiary (a lay member of the Dominican Order) during her childhood. It was during this time that Stephana encountered the stigmatic Blessed Matthew Carrieri, who resided in the nearby Dominican convent.
