Problem Solver
As an innovator, Stacey leverages her platform to drive attention to critical issues and the communities closest to them, which she works alongside - be it through for-profit or non-profit ventures.
“My mission is to be a problem solver, using business, nonprofits and the political system to find solutions. Whether it's starting a company, consulting an existing enterprise or co-creating a new product, my goal is to innovate and invite people in so their voices are heard and we can imagine what's possible.”
Businesswoman
In business, Stacey takes a cross-sector approach to reshaping what it truly means to create opportunity for all - building outcome-focused, strategic, and innovative ventures that improve financial capacity, address systemic inequalities, and increase diversity in spaces that lack representation.
Stacey serves as a senior advisor and consultant for Rewiring America, the leading electrification nonprofit in the U.S., focused on electrifying homes, businesses, and communities. As part of her involvement, Stacey has helped launch and scale a national awareness campaign among a network of large and small communities working to help Americans go electric. In 2023, she helped bring the organization’s life-altering program to DeSoto, GA, supporting the provision of eco-friendly upgrades to every household in the community.
As an entrepreneur, Stacey has founded and co-founded a number of enterprises. In 2020, Stacey launched the media company Sage Works Productions and currently holds several positions on corporate boards, including Heliogen and ShoulderUp Technology Acquisition Company. She co-founded the financial services firm NOWAccount Corp., Nourish, Inc., a beverage company focused on supporting infants and toddlers, and Insomnia Consulting, which specialized in development and investment for transportation, energy, and water projects.
Leveraging her breadth of business and political experience, Stacey and her business partner, Lara Hodgson, published a guidebook for entrepreneurs called Level Up: Rise Above the Hidden Forces Holding Your Business Back.
Assembly Required
Stacey is the Host of Assembly Required - a weekly podcast from Crooked Media where she breaks down the biggest issues we face into digestible, actionable items, introduces us to the warriors for good already working towards solutions, and then strategizes and shares tangible ways to get involved. Stacey knows better than anyone that societal shifts happen when a group of ordinary people decide that a problem is solvable and are willing to pitch in and work toward the solution. And that’s because even though we can't fix everything, everywhere, all at once; we can each do something, somewhere, soon.
