Stacey has dedicated over 20 years to working with seniors in the areas of administration at senior living facilities, senior volunteer coordinating, and care management.  Stacey’s passion for senior service started from caring for her own family. Her own father’s battle with Parkinson’s Disease inspired her to pursue her public administration degrees and caring for her elderly grandmother ignited Stacey’s love for senior service. When her grandmother passed away at age 103, Stacey missed assisting in retirement center events and functions and serving seniors through Medicare was a perfect transition.  In addition to senior service, she has also started and chaired neighborhood associations and been an active volunteer, sitting on church, city, and school boards. She was a founding member and former President of Fisher’s Creek Neighborhood Association. In her time of service, she attended monthly and quarterly leadership trainings with local government officials. She also has a long record of serving on school and church boards from 1988-2003.  She has been active in politics, serving as a campaign worker for multiple candidates and advocated for policies for senior health issues throughout the years. She most recently lobbied on Capitol Hill for greater transparency in medical and prescription drug billing. Stacey feels strongly about community involvement and that belief that one person has the ability to make a very big difference.

Stacey is nationally certified to offer Medicare plans as well as certified and appointed with all major insurance companies in Washington and Oregon. Stacey is also a certified broker for the Washington Health Plan Finder and the federal Health Insurance Marketplace. Stacey complements her health insurance offerings with ancillary products such as dental, vision, critical care, long term care, and life insurance and is in her 19th year of insurance producing. She founded Your Insurance Gal Agency in 2015 and moved into her brick-and-mortar location on 92^nd Avenue that summer. Stacey’s agency has grown and evolved over the years, accumulating a diverse team of agents and administrators who all share Stacey’s passion for senior care. Viewing Your Insurance Gal Agency as her legacy, Stacey has invested in and coached many up-and-coming agents to be guides and advocates for Medicare beneficiaries.

In her personal life, Stacey enjoys gardening, attending community events, reading, and exercising. She is also an avid patron of music and the arts. Fond of food and culture, she loves traveling and discovering new places. She lives in Battle Ground and is rarely seen without her sidekick, a tuxedo cat named Sebastian, at her side.
