• Project Management: Balancing multiple priorities while keeping everything on track.

• Budgeting & Fundraising: From managing program budgets to raising thousands for rescue efforts, I know how to make resources stretch.

• Communication: Whether I’m coaching learners, presenting to stakeholders, or sharing rescue stories on TV, I know how to connect.

• Empathy & Relationship Building: Building trust, strengthening partnerships, and understanding the needs of others—these are at the heart of everything I do.

This sample Policies and Procedures manual was created to demonstrate my ability to develop clear, well-organized policy documentation. While it is only a brief example, these pages highlight my approach to structuring essential information in a way that is easy to understand and reference. All content is generic, with no proprietary or confidential information included. The sample reflects my commitment to clarity, compliance, and supporting both new and experienced team members through effective, user-friendly documentation.

One of the featured resources on my site is the Pack Leaders Guide—a Google website I created specifically for our foster volunteers. This site serves as a central hub, providing easy access to information and resources needed at every stage of the fostering process. While it isn’t designed to be interactive, its straightforward layout and clear organization allow fosters to quickly find answers and guidance when they need it most. My focus was on making critical information accessible, intuitive, and easy to navigate, supporting our team’s success in real time.

I’m also excited to share the Forever Home Faceoff document, which highlights my creativity and ability to organize and communicate ideas effectively. This project was designed as a fun, engaging challenge to promote dog adoptions, and showcases my skills in event planning, campaign development, and content organization. It’s a great example of how I combine creative thinking with practical execution to connect with the community and drive positive results.

Website Contributions

While I didn’t design the full site myself, I hired and directed a designer to bring the vision to life. Since launch, I’ve managed all updates and content—and the pages below are ones I created entirely on my own. From layout to copy, they reflect my voice, values, and commitment to creating a helpful, user-friendly experience.

Community Resource Page: https://pipsrescue.org/community/
Built to support pet owners before they reach a breaking point, this page connects families with local resources for vet care, food, behavior help, and more. It's designed to be easy to navigate and filled with practical, judgment-free support to help keep pets where they belong—home.

Dogs with Disabilities Resource Page: https://pipsrescue.org/resources/
A heart project. This page offers real-world tools and tips for people caring for disabled dogs. From wheelchairs to skin care to success stories, it’s packed with encouragement, empathy, and hard-won experience to make life better for pets with special needs.

Donation Page: https://pipsrescue.org/donate-2/
Simple, clear, and mission-driven. This page breaks down how donations make an impact and offers multiple ways to give—from one-time gifts to monthly support. It’s designed to inspire action while showing gratitude every step of the way.

Included in my portfolio are two training design samples: a training outline and a storyboard. Both were created specifically for demonstration purposes, using a combination of Canva and PowerPoint to showcase my instructional design process. These examples highlight my ability to structure engaging, learner-focused training programs from the planning phase through to detailed content development. They reflect my approach to organization, visual clarity, and the use of accessible tools to bring training concepts to life.

100 Women Who Give a Hoot Presentation

In 2024, I had the honor of presenting on behalf of Perfectly Imperfect Pups to 100 Women Who Give a Hoot, a local philanthropic group dedicated to supporting nonprofits making an impact in the community. Our presentation shared the mission of PIPs, the challenges we face, and the transformative programs we’ve built to save and support dogs with medical and behavioral needs.

The experience not only gave us the opportunity to highlight our work, but it also secured critical funding that allows us to expand our reach and continue saying “yes” to the dogs who need us most.

You can view the full presentation here, including both the video of my talk and the accompanying PowerPoint slides.
