Tracey L. Tracy

"Before court reporting, I never had a job where I could honestly say, I love going to work every single day. As a freelance reporter, no two days are ever the same. We play a critical role in producing an accurate and verbatim record of proceedings, and we have a front-row seat in the most important legal matters of people’s lives. Thus far, I would say the best experience has been the realization that no machine will ever be able to replicate the accuracy of the human brain for synthesizing speech and converting it to text."

About Tracey

Tracey graduated from Green River College with a degree in Court Reporting Technologies in 2017 and attained her RPR national certification as a stenographic court reporter shortly thereafter. Tracey is also licensed in the states of Washington and Oregon. She began working with Buell in 2019, and has a wide range of experience covering complex, multi-party depositions.

To further advance her skills in the profession of court reporting, Tracey has also earned her CVR-S certification, which is also known as a Voice Writer, from the International Realtime Court Reporting Institute in 2024. Voice writers are highly trained professionals who use their voices to keep an accurate record of proceedings, equivalent to stenographers who use their hands to do the same. So when Tracey is not on her steno machine taking down a verbatim record, you may find her doing the same behind a Stenomask!

Tracey is very passionate about the importance of being involved with WCRA, NCRA, and NVRA, as both a student and a professional, which allows for many connections and reconnections with students and professional steno writers and voice writers.

In her spare time, Tracey enjoys spending time with her family and friends, spending time with her grandson, who calls her Noni, traveling, gardening, and her two Bernedoodles, Rotini and Riley.
