History
Judy Madrigal has never forgotten her days as an employee. She now employs thousands as the owner of Northern California's premier staffing company. "My management philosophy centers around the Golden Rule. I always try to appreciate both sides of any situation and treat people as I would like to be treated," she says.

Today JMA has over 1,000 employees at more than 350 medical, technology, legal, biotech, and other small to medium-sized businesses. Even though new human resources platforms are constantly surfacing, JMA has retained its loyal client base and continues to grow rapidly due to its stellar reputation for employee management.
Judy is a member of the American Management Association and the Medical Group Management Association. She is a former chairperson of the National Staff Leasing Association.
