WORK HISTORY
Member Board of Directors @New Collar Collective
New Collar Collective (“New Collar”) is a not-for-profit animal rescue organization committed to alleviating animal homelessness. In pursuit of this mission, New Collar rescues stray, abandoned, abused, or surrendered companion animals requiring care, attention and human assistance. We believe in the transformative power of love, so all of our animals are placed in nurturing foster homes. While in foster care, they receive the vetting and basic training required for them to thrive once adopted out to loving forever homes.
