I have been an avid animal lover, rescuer and vegetarian all of my life. I have always been dedicated to helping animals in need and share my home with cats, dogs and a fish. I am also the Founder of Homeless But Hopeful Animal Rescue and the home visit coordinator for Save A Yorkie Rescue.

I am responsible for four communities on the Best Friends Network; the Connecticut and Rhode Island Communities, as well as The Adoption Spot and Movin' On Transport & Rescue. I also volunteer with Best Friends Animal Help Department as an Animal Help Assistant and with No More Homeless Pets. I was formerly the Volunteer Coordinator for Best Friends at Pets Alive in Middletown, New York.

"The worst sin towards our fellow creatures is not to hate them, but to be indifferent to them. That's the essence of inhumanity".
