New Advocates Join Our Team

We’ve welcomed two new staff advocates to our team in Sacramento, Lauren Cullum and Brandon Dawson.

Both are recovering attorneys who have left the life of lawyering to become policy advocates.

Both are also committed to environmental protection and often spend free time hiking. Brandon backpacked for four weeks along the continental divide last summer, just before applying for the position at Sierra Club California. Lauren hiked the historic El Camino de Santiago pilgrimage in Spain for three weeks.
