My rescue journey began back in 2013 with Adopt A Golden Nashville. I started as a foster when the organization was still Middle Tennessee Golden Retriever Rescue and eventually stepped into the role of Home Visit Coordinator for a year. When I moved to the Louisville area in early 2015 after finishing my undergraduate degree, I had to pause my rescue work, but the passion never left.

In 2021, I found my way to GRRAND, and it immediately felt like home. Since then, I’ve fostered, adopted three incredible GRRAND dogs, volunteered at the kennel, and joined the transport team. Helping dogs get safely to the next chapter of their lives is one of the greatest joys in mine.

Outside of rescue, I love to travel and explore new places. Professionally, I hold an MBA and a bachelor’s degree in Business Management.

And in the photo, I’m with my beautiful “foster fail”, Palmer who made it very clear she was meant to stay forever.
