Sabrina Ashjian is a clinical supervising attorney and project director for the Emmett Institute on Climate Change & the Environment at UCLA School of Law. In this role she teaches the California Environmental Legislation & Policy Clinic. She also does legislative & regulatory consulting internationally, nationally, and locally with clients ranging from investment firms to nonprofit organizations. She previously was with the Environmental Law Clinic at UC Berkeley School of Law where she taught environmental justice and legislation courses.

Her other environmental roles include serving on the Los Angeles Water Quality Control Board after being appointed by Governor Newsom, the Santa Monica Bay Restoration Commission Governing Board, and as an advisory member of California Lawyers Association Environmental Law Section.

Sabrina joined SEER following her participation in its ABA Section, Division, and Forum (SDF) Coordination Committee as a liaison for the Civil Rights & Social Justice Section (as one of the Vice Chairs of the Environmental Justice Committee). She enjoyed the collaborative approach so much that she just began serving as Co-Chair of the SDF Coordination Committee in 2023. She looks forward to becoming more involved with SEER this year and is excited for the opportunities to collaborate and coordinate with environmental lawyers across the country.
