Stephens was born in Foxton, in New Zealand's Manawatū-Whanganui region. While studying teaching, she played for a men's team, as there was no organised women's cricket in her area at the time. She later began to play club cricket in Wellington, and eventually for the Wellington representative team.

She made her One Day International (ODI) debut in the first game of the tournament, scoring nine runs coming in sixth in the batting order against Australia. Her only other match at the tournament came against England, where she scored just three runs before being dismissed by Jacqueline Court.

After moving to Napier, where her husband worked, Stephens helped to establish a Central Districts women's team. The team began play during the 1978–79 season and was admitted to the national competition the following season. Follow her retirement from playing, Stephens remained involved in cricket as an administrator. She became a board member of the Central Districts Cricket Association in 2000, representing the Hawke's Bay region. She remained on the board until December 2014, also serving as a member of the association's management committee. Stephens additionally served as a tournament official at the 2000 Women's World Cup, which New Zealand hosted. In November 2015, she was made a life member of the CDCA.
