With a Bachelor’s of Arts in Environmental Studies and Sociology from the University of California, Santa Barbara, Judy envisioned a career that would positively impact the community. Judy’s career began with marketing and development internships for environmental nonprofit organizations focusing on solar power and ocean sustainability. She went on to become a Community Developer for a private solar power firm, where she utilized marketing, event coordination, and public relations to help communities adopt solar renewable energy. She also volunteered as a graphic designer for a nonprofit dedicated to ending youth homelessness. Judy’s passion for helping organizations achieve their mission led to her current role at The Nonprofit Partnership, where she enjoys the privilege of supporting over a hundred nonprofit organizations and their diverse causes every day. Judy enjoys spending time in nature, reading, and cuddling with her cat.
