In 2009, Stockman won the William Brewster Styles Award. The award is one given by the Scripps Howard Foundation, and is accompanied by $10,000.

Stockman attended Radcliffe College, graduating in 1996. She was an active member of the Radcliffe Rugby Football Club. In the summer of 1996 Stockman directed the Mission Hill Summer Program with Harvard's Phillips Brooks House Association.

Stockman was a winner of an award from the J. W. Saxe Memorial Fund in the 1990s. Stockman won her award for her work "with homeless children in Machakos, Kenya." Stockman subsequently became one of the fund's directors.
