Prior to transitioning to Entertainment Law, Stacy began representing clients in Criminal and Family Law matters while attending Thomas Jefferson School of Law, upon being registered by the State of California as a Certified Legal Intern. As an intern with The Office of the Public Defender in Chula Vista and later at The San Diego City Attorney's Office, Stacy represented clients in court hearings and trials. She also worked as an intern at The California Innocence Project, where she had the opportunity to be trained by wonderful attorneys there who work tirelessly to free wrongly convicted persons. Stacy also received the Wiley W. Manuel Award for her dedication to providing pro bono legal services while in law school.

 

After law school, Stacy attended  American University Washington College of Law in Washington, DC, and earned an LL.M. in Law and Government and Trial Advocacy. While enrolled, she gained additional courtroom and advocacy experience while clerking at the D.C Public Defender Service.
