Stacie Gartly | Executive Administrator
Stacie is the person at EPIC who helps turn ideas into finished projects. As Executive Administrator, she works across the organization—keeping daily operations on track, coordinating programs and events, supporting new initiatives, and managing the many details needed to move a project from “we should do this” to “it’s done.”
She enjoys working through the details, bringing the right people and pieces together, and seeing a project through to completion.
Stacie has been in recovery since 2019. Her lived experience is an important part of what connects her to EPIC and why the work matters so much to her. EPIC is more than a job for Stacie: she volunteers much of the time she spends there and lends a hand wherever it is needed, including with community projects such as The Sober Connection.

Beyond EPIC
Stacie has a longstanding fascination with the ancient world, particularly ancient Greece. She gravitates toward reimaginings of classical mythology and historical retellings—books that take a familiar story and allow it to be seen from a different perspective.
Outside of EPIC, Stacie is happiest at home with her family, a good book, and four beloved pets—Tito, Gertie Goose, Lulu, and Snake—who ensure there is never a dull moment.
