Navigating a Career Transition in Animal Welfare

    Posted 12 days ago

    Hello everyone,

    After 18 fulfilling years at a nonprofit animal shelter in the California East Bay, I find myself reflecting on my journey in animal care. Despite taking a step back due to physical limitations, my passion for animal welfare remains unwavering. I am currently exploring new opportunities to contribute to this field that I hold dear.

    Throughout my career, I've dedicated myself to providing comprehensive care for dogs and cats, training volunteers, and implementing enrichment activities. While I've been away from the shelter environment for nearly a year, I continue to educate myself through online courses and remain deeply committed to promoting animal well-being.

    I am particularly interested in roles that leverage my skills in administrative support, content creation, and volunteer coordination. My goal is to continue making a meaningful impact in animal welfare through compassionate and dedicated work.

    If you have any advice, opportunities, or simply wish to connect, I would love to hear from you. Let's work together to advance the cause of animal welfare.

    Thank you for your support and insights!
