In his announcement, Garland praised Hinds, stating, "Stephanie is a superb leader with decades of experience at the Justice Department who will be an outstanding advocate for all 94 of our U.S. Attorneys’ Offices across the country." He highlighted her extensive career and dedication to the department.

Hinds brings a wealth of experience from her tenure at the Justice Department since joining 29 years ago. Before this new role, she served as Associate Deputy Attorney General starting in May 2023 and held positions such as Interim and Acting U.S. Attorney for the Northern District of California from March 2021 to March 2023.
