What stands out most to me are her contributions to establishing pay equity within our organization, her influence on our search and onboarding processes, and her insight on how to structure our Federal Policy Office staff for maximum impact. Thanks to Cathy’s help, our DC team is dynamic and able to advance national policies, practices, and regulations in the interest of our New York constituency and the greater environmental justice movement.
