DIRECTOR OF OPERATION & COMPLIANCE

The wellbeing and welfare of all animals in need has always been my top priority and will continue to be. If you have any questions, comments, or concerns regarding our animals, staff, or volunteers, please feel free to contact me directly.

I am a dedicated dad, animal rights activist, and a passionate first responder in the fire-rescue community. My journey has been shaped by the values of compassion, service, and a profound respect for all living beings.

As a father, I strive to instill in my children the importance of empathy, responsibility, and the necessity of standing up for those who cannot stand up for themselves. I believe that nurturing a sense of compassion starts at home, and I take pride in teaching my kids about the world around them, including the significance of animal welfare. My commitment to animal rights stems from a deep-seated belief that every creature deserves to live free from harm and exploitation. I actively advocate for better treatment and rights for animals, participating in various initiatives and campaigns aimed at raising awareness and fostering change within our communities.

In my professional life, I serve as a first responder, a role that brings both immense responsibility and profound fulfillment. The challenges I face each day only strengthen my resolve to make a difference in the lives of others. My experience in fire-rescue has taught me the value of teamwork and leadership, and I approach every emergency with a calm demeanor and a focused mind. I am proud to be part of a community that prioritizes safety, preparedness, and the well-being of individuals in crisis.

Balancing my roles as a father, an activist, and a first responder can be demanding, but it is also incredibly rewarding. Each aspect of my life is intertwined, allowing me to draw on my experiences as I work towards positive change. Whether I am advocating for an animal in need or responding to an emergency, I approach each situation with a caring heart and a determined spirit.

Through my work and my passions, I aim to inspire others to join me in making a difference, whether it be in their family, their community, or for the animals we share this planet with. I am committed to fostering a more compassionate world for all beings, and I believe that together, we can create meaningful change that echoes across generations.
