Stefania Spampinato was born in a small town at the base of the Etna Volcano in Belpasso, Sicily. She started dancing at 6 years old. Her passion for the arts at a young age was undeniable so her mother started making her dance costumes so she could afford her daughter's tuition. After graduating high school with honors, she did something unheard of in her small village: she bought a plane ticket & left. What came to follow was a wildly successful career in dance & theatre that lasted 10 years & included collaborations with Joquin Cortez, Kylie Minogue, Demi Lovato Leona Lewi, Neo, Take That, Nine, Samsung, Toyota, Target Wells Fargo, Adidas, Miller light, The VoiceUK, & X Factor US & UK In 2011 she made an even bolder move & bought a one way ticket to Los Angeles, CA. Upon landing she immersed herself in acting classes with Gary Imhoff (formally of the Beverly Hills Playhouse), Anthony Meindl, & Michelle Danner. Within 3 months she had representation commercially and theatrically.

As the son of Hades, Nico di Angelo has been through so much, from the premature deaths of his mother and sister, to being outed against his will, to losing his friend Jason during the trials of Apollo. But there is a ray of sunshine in his life–literally: his boyfriend, Will Solace, the son of Apollo. Together the two demigods can overcome any obstacle or foe. At least, that’s been the case so far... Now Nico is being plagued by a voice calling out to him from Tartarus, the lowest part of the Underworld. He thinks he knows who it is: a reformed Titan named Bob whom Percy and Annabeth had to leave behind when they escaped Hades’s realm. Nico’s dreams and Rachel Dare’s latest prophecy leave little doubt in Nico’s mind that Bob is in some kind of trouble. Nico has to go on this quest, whether Mr. D and Chiron like it or not. And of course Will insists on coming with. But can a being made of light survive in the darkest part of the world? and what does the prophecy mean that Nico will have to “leave something of equal value behind?”
