Judy Martin Overbey, daughter of Ivin and Beth Martin in Fisher County, Texas, traveled to Washington, D.C. last week to accept the Gen. Thomas D. White Environmental Award for Restoration. Awards ceremonies were held at Andrews Air Force Base and the Pentagon, followed by a reception for award recipients.
Overbey has worked in the environmental flight program at Dyess Air Force Base in Abilene, Texas for eight and half years and is currently the Restoration Program Manager. She has a BS from Hardin-Simmons University in Biology/Chemistry/Science Education and a MS from Abilene Christian University in Management and Human Relations.
Overbey worked briefly as an environmental specialist for West Texas Utilities before returning to the field of human resources management after WTU’s environmental department was moved to Dallas. The opportunity to get back into the environmental field has enabled her to utilize both her science and management degrees and provides her with great job satisfaction in supporting the mission of defending the country and protecting the environment.
Overbey is a 1972 graduate of Hobbs High School in Hobbs, Texas.
