Meet Our APS Partners


Lynda Stammer, APS Partner

Lynda joined AVAILABILITY in 1986 as a recruiter, and 5 years later became a principal beginning the journey of a lifetime!  She came from manufacturing in a management role where she was involved in many company layers including accounting, sales, purchasing and inventory management.   Today over 3 decades later, Lynda is still loving what she does, matching great people to great companies. She and her husband have 3 children, three grandkids and three dogs.  On her off time Lynda enjoys spending time at her cabin in Long Barn, or almost always has some sort of project going on at her home which is a long term remodel in progress.

Chris Peterson, APS Partner

Chris grew up in the Central Valley and is a graduate of Turlock High School (Go Bulldogs!). He left the area to attend San Jose State University to obtain his B.S. in Business Management.  He started his career as a credit manager in the road construction industry. After returning to the Central Valley in 1991, he spent 20 years in the business products industry. In 2011, Chris became a principal with AVAILABILITY, and immediately began to expand APS’s position as a premier executive search and staffing company.  Chris enjoys time with his family. He and his wife have 3 children, and they are dog lovers as well. They enjoy travel, golf, local arts and restaurants.

Alexa Yates, APS Partner

Alexa grew up on the Mississippi Gulf Coast and attended The University of Mississippi to obtain a B.S. in Business & Marketing. From there, she began her Home-Infusion Recruiting and Staffing career in 2003. Alexa considers the combination of sales and healthcare as a passion of hers. She assisted with the planning and forming of APS Infusion from the ground up in 2021 and became a partner with APS in 2023. With 20 years of management experience, she is a strategic leader in recruiting, staffing, and marketing.
