Steph West began her film and T.V. career starring in front of the camera as a model and actress. The bulk of her work was as talent hosting multiple digital video productions for The Other Paper (now defunct) in Columbus, Ohio. She was also selected for bit roles in various film and independent projects.

West’s biggest role before finding her place behind the camera was starring as “Snobby Mom” in a Honda regional commercial, where she played a rich wife whose car windshield gets broken by a baseball at her son’s little league game and she becomes irate.
