I have volunteered at veterinary clinics, animal shelters, wildlife sanctuaries and have about 10 years of experience working as an animal care volunteer. I have worked caring for domestic animals such as dogs and horses as well as several wild animals. I have privately dog sat for about 3 years done and I have had two dogs, as well as other pets, since I was a kid. Most recently my husband and I adopted a senior english staffordshire terrier (a short pitty!) and although we spent a good 4 years with her she has recently crossed the rainbow bridge and we are ready to open our home to new pups! I have a Bachelors degree in psychology from The Ohio State University and a law degree (J.D.) from the University of Sydney (Australia) where I lived for the past 7 years. I am now in NYC and I looking to continue my career in environmental justice and conservation.
