Professionally, Judy was a Computer Programmer, designing, writing and teaching the users the programs she wrote for them. She worked in aerospace, and also with engineers designing offshore oil rigs, manufacturing systems, and many other systems. Users loved is that she learned and communicated with their language, instead of resorting to “computer-eeze.”

Treasurer, and so on.
