Began Volunteering:  August 2005

Resides:  Fort Wayne, IN

Employed: Grabill and Woodburn veterinary clinics

Family: I live with my mom and dad and little sister, Tayler.  I have two dogs, Kyro and Sierra, and one cat, Little.

Favorite Animal: I don't have an absolute favorite (I like them all!) but I do really enjoy spending time and interacting with Luna, the Bengal tiger.

Favorite Activity: Enriching the animals, whether it be interacting with them or making and distributing toys.

Least Favorite Activity: I'm not fond of manning the gift shop - I'd rather interact with guests out in the park.

What surprised me most about Black Pine was: How the animals learn to know a person and respond to them.
