Summary

As a dynamic volunteer at Ready Set Ride Therapeutic, I leveraged strong interpersonal communication and leadership qualities to enhance team collaboration and improve animal care processes. Skilled in relationship building and holding a State Driver's License, I significantly contributed to organizational missions and volunteer engagement, demonstrating a profound commitment to both team efficiency and compassionate service. I have a lot of experience with animal care as I've had many over the course of my life, including many reptiles and dogs.
