I am a former special education educator turned financial coach and love helping others. In my spare time, I also volunteer with Navy-Marine Corps Relief Society and excited to support Third Decade members. Personally, I enjoy beach walks, good books and traveling whenever I get the chance. I am blessed to have an awesome family with two young children who keep me busy. I’m also passionate about equality, inclusion, science, accessibility and early education. In sessions, you enter a non-judgement zone where we work together to explore your goals.

Get to Know Stacy

What is a book or film that changed your life? There are so many good books that I have read! One that I enjoyed reading when I was in my early twenties was "The Millionaire Next Door" by Thomas Stanley. It opened my eyes that it is possible for the average person to become a millionaire and they may not spend the way you expect them to.

What is a quote you like to live by? "Be the change you wish to see in the world." -Mahatma Gandhi

Do you have any pets? If so, tell us about them. I have an Australian Shepard (think mini-collie) named Kodiak. He loves to go on walks and rounds up the kids when we play outside.
