Senior Office Assistant
Judy Hernandez started her career with the City of National City, Engineering Division as
a part time office assistant in 1984. Judy was raised in National City and she and her
family have called National City home since 1977. You would not know it by Judy's
modest, humble and friendly demeanor, but almost everyone who works for the City
knows that for the last 27 years Judy has been the steady quiet provider of support and
nurture in the Engineering Division. So when you know Judy you also know about her
unwavering friendship, unconditional support under any circumstances and
uncompromising dedication. When you Know Judy, you also know she is the ultimate
team player, and someone you can count on no matter what. When you know Judy you
know she is never one to try to take center stage but in her quiet smiling way she is the
one who makes having any stage possible at all. When you know Judy you know she is
never one to seek credit but would be the first to help bring credit for her team members.
Judy recently had some health problems but you would never know it as she never let that
get in her way of doing her job, she never complained, never lost her incredible sense of
humor, and never let the smile leave her face. Judy Hernandez is true asset to the City of
National City and to all of us in Development Services Judy is a friend, an amazing team
member and a true source of inspiration.
