Michelle Kaufman

Accounts Receivable Specialist

I grew up in Boulder, Colorado, hiking, camping and skiing in the Rockies. It was there that I developed my love of nature and an understanding of its fragility which made me realize the importance of protecting it.

I received my Bachelor’s degree in Business and Sociology from the University of San Diego and an MBA from the University of Colorado at Denver. I have since worked primarily in ocean conservation running the business side of small non-profits, while supporting mission-related activities that are important to me, including plastic pollution advocacy and fisheries management. Since joining Point Blue, I have a newfound appreciation for the beauty, study and conservation of birds, and have high hopes to build up my (currently short) Birding List.

When I’m not working or volunteering for local non-profit initiatives, I can be found playing outside somewhere between the mountains and the ocean trying to tire out my three young children and my Australian Shepard/Saint Bernard puppy mix, Panda.
