Dr. Catherine Cushinberry

Interim Executive Director
(she/her)

With almost thirty years of experience in nonprofits within youth development, education, and social services, Catherine brings a wealth of knowledge to the role of Interim Executive Director. Before joining EarthGen, Catherine served as the CEO of Hopelink in Redmond, Vice-President/Executive Director of City Year Memphis, where she founded the site for the national office, and National Executive Director of Parents for Public Schools. When she is not at work, she enjoys walking and hiking to explore new areas and spaces. It’s soothing.


I’m excited to support and partner with talented and knowledgeable professionals as they offer education, information, and experiences that position youth to make decisions and live in ways that improve our environment.
