I am super lucky to be able to spend a majority of my life caring for animals. I have been working as Animal Care Technician and Doggy Daycare Counselor for over 3 years. This is where I got named the "Doodle Whisperer" - even though my "whispering" skills range beyond doodles :) I truly love my job and getting to know all the amazing dogs (and their parents)! In additional to professional experience, I also have a Bachelor's degree in Psychology/Animal Behavior, including a course on canine cognition. When I'm not spending my time with my furry friends at work or home, I am working on research with the gorillas at the Philadelphia Zoo.
