Narrative:
During a flight to sts; the captain and I briefed the RNAV 14 approach into sts. Our briefings overlooked the step down fix uceve at 1700 feet. Because of this oversight; we descended from 3300 feet at ehety to around 700. This is where we received a terrain climb alert and went missed approach.
