Stephanie Geltmacher (born August 21, 1990) is an American mixed martial artist and currently she competes in the flyweight division. She has previously competed for Invicta Fighting Championships.
Background
Aggressive as a child, Geltmacher's father suggested her to start some sort of martial art. She started training Brazilian jiu-jitsu at the age of ten and started wrestling in high school. She attended Yakima Valley College for a year and transferred to Oklahoma City University, being an All-American in wrestling in all four years. Not sure what to do after the college, she started training mixed martial arts with her boyfriend who already trained the sport.
