Stern got her first regular series role as Holly Brodeen, a member of an elite government anti-terrorist task force in ABC's Threat Matrix. The role was created for her by the show's producers after a director who had worked with her on The Division recommended her.

She played Bonnie Richmond in the CBS post-apocalyptic drama Jericho, Eileen Leahy on the CW show Supernatural, and had a recurring role in Fox's Lie to Me.
