Animal Welfare Professionals

Hello! I'm seeking around five people who work in the animal welfare field full time and would be willing to briefly share their career path (unconventional OK), education (if applicable), brief advice for job seekers and a headshot. Can be in the beginning, middle or end of their careers. Short profiles of these people might be featured in the Animal Sheltering Winter issue and/or on animalsheltering.org.

If interested, please reach out in the DMs with your:
name
email address
job title and organization
career path (e.g., started out volunteering to clean kennels)
education (if applicable)
brief advice for job seekers in the field

Did you receive 5 responses? 

Not yet! Looking for people from all areas of animal welfare if you'd like to submit :)

Do you have something we could share outside this forum (an email address for you, or a link to a page to apply, etc.)? I'm only part-time, but I am part of a large local rescue community that includes full-timers 

If you click on "bethanywa" (the person who posted this) it will take you to her profile page and you can click on Send Message to send a private message to her. 

Thanks, Krista! Erin, if you are part of closed rescue group pages or group emails, you can share my email address: bwynn@humanesociety.org (I get a lot of pitches/spam, so I try not to make it too public!)

That is very fair! I'll do a post in one of my Facebook groups and tell people to reach out to me for your email address if they want to get involved :)
