What’s your favorite thing about working with dogs?
My favorite part of working with dogs is building relationships with each of them and getting to know their different personalities. Especially when they are shy, and I am able to get them out of their shell, it’s the sweetest!

What are you most looking forward to this year?
Definitely going to Pigeon Forge for vacation!
Do you have any pet of your own?
Yes, I have a Blue Doberman named Moose, a Yorkie named Luna, a bearded dragon named Louie, and last but not least, I have a cockatiel named Skeeter!
What hobbies do you have outside of work?
I enjoy going on nature trail walks with my dog, going to the gym, and fishing!
What is the most exciting thing on your bucket list?
Swimming with sea turtles or dolphins!
What do you listen to while in your car?
My music taste is a wide range, but mostly Frank Ocean, Khalid, and a lot of country music.
