Stacey is a trained divorce mediator as well as a divorce financial planner who is skilled at analyzing and providing expertise on the financial issues of divorce.  As a financial specialist, she brings experience, knowledge and financial tools to the mediation process to help parties increase their understanding of the issues and reach better decisions.  Her experience and training helps couples identify their goals, priorities and needs to ensure they make well informed financial and family decisions to achieve a comprehensive divorce settlement for their long term benefit.

Stacey graduated with her Bachelors of Accountancy Degree and began her career almost 25 years ago as a Certified Public Accountant.  While continuing her career as a CPA, she worked in both the insurance and the financial services field. Having been through a divorce herself (with 2 young children) using the mediation process and seeing how the adversarial process has destroyed other families unnecessarily (both financially and emotionally), Stacey was motivated to pursue a career in divorce mediation.

Additionally, knowing the financial issues of divorce and her extensive financial background, Stacey went on to obtain a Certified Divorce Financial Analyst™ (CDFA™) designation. Stacey is passionate about helping couples during these difficult times. Divorce does not destroy families, a bad divorce does.
