Formerly, she was a partner at Transcend Education dedicated to accelerating innovation in the core design of “school.” and she served as the advisor of the Superintendent and Director of Personalized Learning for Oakland Unified School District, where she collaborated with system and school leaders and the broader community to transform schools to personalized learning schools for 7,000 students.

As part of her work in innovation, she ran a team at the Center for the Edge developing pragmatic frameworks for systemic innovation. Stacey's interest in education sparked over a decade ago when she helped a San Francisco school in the Tenderloin develop a ten-year growth strategy. From there, Stacey joined the Board of Trustees for Leadership High School, a high-achieving public school and became an Education Pioneer, Broad, and Pahara fellow to deepen her capacity and understanding for building equitable school systems for youth. Stacey pursued an Master of Business Administration at Columbia Business School with a focus on social entrepreneurship and nonprofit management, and has an undergraduate degree from University California Berkeley, Haas School of Business. Most recently, Stacey completed the Broad Residency and received her master’s degree in education leadership.
