Stacy earned her degree from Humboldt State University in Natural Resource Planning and Interpretation with an emphasis in Environmental Education. She worked as the Education Coordinator for a small children’s museum shortly after graduating college, then went on to become the Recreation Specialist for the City of Anaheim overseeing the daily operations of Oak Canyon Nature Center in the Anaheim Hills. After the birth of her first child, she decided to take a break from full-time work to stay home and raise her growing family. As her two children grew, the family moved to Nimrod, Oregon and Stacy took on multiple part-time paid and volunteer jobs in the McKenzie Valley, including Smart Reading Program Volunteer Coordinator, HJ Andrews Experimental Forest Field Trip Coordinator and Environment Education Coordinator for McKenzie Community School. Stacy enjoys hiking, gardening, and building rustic birdhouses.
