Stephanie Nadolny has worked as a voice-over artist for Funimation and ADV Films. From 1999 to 2010, she provided the voice of young Gohan in the Funimation dub of the Dragon Ball series, as well as young Goku (after she replaced Ceyli Delgadillo). She reprised both roles in most Dragon Ball related video games and other media during that time, but did not reprise her role of Gohan for Dragon Ball Z Kai and has since been replaced by fellow voice actress Colleen Clinkenbeard (who also took over as Kid Goku). Even though Stephanie's list of major roles is somewhat small compared to other voice actors, her work has still been extensive due to Goku and Gohan being such prominent characters.

She currently resides in Dallas, and sang with Bulletproof Brass for over two years and currently sings with the Dallas-based Project Band. They play R&B, jazz, soul, disco and funk. They play at clubs, weddings and parties all over the DFW metroplex. She loves vocal parody work and picking up radio jingle work when time allows.

Stephanie has since returned to voice acting through Cartoon Network's TV series OK K.O.! Let's Be Heroes, starring as the eponymous K.O., a young martial artist and hero in training. She voices the character in the pilot, mobile game and selective episodes/shorts but the role is frequently and more-recently played by Courtenay Taylor, who voices him for the majority of the show's route to the console game adaption.
