Judy Edwards has worked in conservation, public lands advocacy, environmental education, nonprofit national parks support, and freelance writing in Hawaiʻi since 1994. Her pieces can be found in Maui Nō Ka ʻOi magazine, in the anthology A Mile in Her Boots, and in the Hawaiian Airlines inflight magazine, Hana Hou! Her decades in Hawaiʻi have been shared between Maui and the Island of Hawaiʻi. Heralding the unsung heroes of conservation is her passion. The ocean is her everything.
