Animals have always been my passion. I began my career as the Animal Control Officer for Lawrence Township, Mercer County in 1988. I have been a member of the NJCACOA from the beginning of my career. I was a graduate of the first class of Animal Cruelty Investigators in 2001. Over the years, I have served as the Central Regional Director and Treasurer for the association.

The association and its members have always provided support, guidance and camaraderie throughout my career. The animal control field has seen many changes over the years and the NJCACOA encourages and promotes opportunities for continuing education and strives to advance professionalism in our field.

As I wind down my career. I am honored to have been asked to again serve on the Board as the Southern Regional Director. I have learned and experienced so much in the last 35 years. This career has been very good to me and I want to give back to the field and the association that was always there for me. My hope as the Southern Regional Director is to share those learning experiences and provide the support and guidance to all of the members of the southern region and all our members.
