Stacey Boothe

2026 Texhoma Chapter Treasurer

Hello, my name is Stacey Boothe. I want to start with a little something about me personally, I’m happily married, this year we’re celebrating our 10th anniversary and I’m proud to be part of a blended family that includes three stepdaughters and one grandson who lights up our lives. I enjoy my flowers, birdwatching, fashion, and spending quality time with family and friends. A fun family fact: I’m distantly related to Johnny Cash, way up the family tree, but it’s there haha!

Professionally, I began my career right out of high school as an Administrative Assistant at LSU Health, where I built a foundation in organization, communication, and supporting fast-paced teams. In 2017 I joined SWEPCO as an Administrator at the Lieberman and Arsenal Hill Power Plants, where I supported plant operations and developed knowledge of generation processes and plant administration. In 2025 I embraced a new challenge and transitioned into a Planner role within Generation Renewables, expanding my skills into planning and project coordination for renewable generation efforts.

Throughout my time here, I’ve been fortunate to form many strong friendships across the company and participate in cross-functional efforts that have broadened my perspective and impact. I’ve contributed to process improvement initiatives, helped document application standard work, and taken part in leadership programs alongside executives. Those experiences have sharpened my ability to collaborate, lead change, and drive improvements that support reliability and operational excellence.

My WINUP adventure began in 2022 with the ArkLaTex Chapter, where I participated on both the Fundraising and STEM committees. In 2026, I became a member of the Texhoma Chapter, serving as Treasurer and Fundraising committee chair. I am also actively involved in several international committees, including Social Media/Website and Marketing. Throughout my time with WINUP, I have built friendships, gained mentors, and benefited from numerous opportunities for professional development and career growth. The opportunity to collaborate and learn from women across our industry has been invaluable.

Looking forward, I’m committed to continuing my professional growth and pursuing opportunities to move upward within the organization. I value mentorship, teamwork, and community engagement, and I’m excited to keep contributing to projects that matter to our team and the communities we serve. I look forward to working with each of you and supporting our shared goals.

My career path to the Utility industry is “colorful” to say the least.

I hold a bachelor’s degree in interior design from Oklahoma State University -a background that, while uncommon in utilities, developed both strategic thinking and keen attention to detail. In the design field I worked with clients, specifying flooring, window covering, furniture and wallcovering. I also learned to custom

blend paint. That expertise led me to Estee Lauder Companies’ Prescriptives’ division, where I helped create custom blended foundations and powders and spent eight years with the company, including two years as a national makeup artist.

I joined AEP/ Public Service Company of Oklahoma in 2000 as Executive Assistant to the President and spent 25 years in the Oklahoma City office supporting Governmental Affairs and related teams. As Budget Analyst for External Affairs, I now process contributions, sponsorships, and memberships across PSO Service territory and partnering with Governmental Affairs, External Affairs, Corporate Communications and Economic Development.

Spoiling my two little grandchildren is definitely my favorite pastime! I also enjoy traveling, tending my flower garden and any project that involves decorating.
