Personal Summary
Stacie joined the Center for Children, Families and Workforce Development in December of 2022 to help launch Montana's first Project ECHO for Hepatitis C, HIV prevention and Disease Intervention Specialists. She is a joyful mother of two adult children, continues to raise one of her child's dogs, and enjoys frequent walks with her husband, John, an avid cyclist and computer programming instructor at MSU-Billings. Stacie recently had a total knee replacement and seems to be making a full recovery. She plans to resume hiking and possibly some slow, recreational skiing in 2023! If you ever find Stacie sitting down, she will likely be knitting up a storm.
