with three other experts, Judith Albert will join GreenHomeNYC online on
Tuesday, May 26 to explore the green career paths for non-STEM
professionals.

Judy’s own green career path certainly didn’t begin with a STEM education.
She holds a degree in Latin American Studies and has practiced law. She
worked in banking before moving onto the Natural Resources Defense Council,
where she served as Executive Director of a group called Environmental
Entrepreneurs. She now teaches Corporate Sustainability and Social
Responsibility at the New School, and is a board member at Inside Climate
News and at Cornerstone Capital Group, an impact investing advisory firm.
Judy has seen people come to green jobs “with all kinds of backgrounds.”
Often, their positions  don’t even include the word  “sustainability,” she
said. Non-STEM jobs can range from logistics to marketing, and a liberal
arts education can be great foundation for a career in sustainability.



On May 26, Judy will talk about the twists and turns of her career journey
and what drove her through these shifts along the way.  She’ll also share
what she expects to see for green careers in a post-COVID-19 world.
