A Western New York native, Judy grew up in a large family of  12. After attending Canisius University and the Albany College of Pharmacy and Health Sciences to obtain her pharmacy degree, Judy joined the Army National Guard, where she proudly served for 28 years. Upon her retirement from the service, Judy opened Pendleton Star Pharmacy in 2013, with hopes of continuing to serve others- this time by providing direct medical care to those in her community. With over 35 years of experience, Judy finds extreme gratification in her work as a pharmacist, and the ability it gives her to help those in her community. 

In her spare time, Judy loves to be outside in her garden, exploring WNY attractions and restaurants, and being with her family. She currently resides in Pendleton with her husband, two children, and cats, Lotis and Sofia.
