When Sharon isn’t conquering the diabolical duo, AKA Accounts Receivables and Accounts Payables, you can find her soaring across the Texas Hill Country with the rest of the Candelaria Crew, or recharging with friends and live music……wearing her cape of course.

Stacey is a graduate of Texas A&M University and has been with Helen Thompson Media since 2002. She is a media buying and planning maven, with masterful negotiating skills.
