Giving Back
I love to give back to the community, and I volunteer my graphic design and photography services to rescue and animal organizations in Sonoma County.
I believe that good material and photography can give companion animals a better chance of getting adopted sooner in finding the family they’ve waited so patiently for. I am also fostering special needs animals from local shelters. Helping at least one animal at the time will be enough to make a difference 🙂
As a HeARTs Speak member, I donate my time photographing animals in need of their ‘furever’ home.
HeARTs Speak is a recognized global community of photographers, artists, shelter staff, rescue volunteers, and animal advocates working together to ensure that no shelter animal goes unseen.

WORLD’S LARGEST 1-DAY PHOTOSHOOT OF SHELTER PETS
LOS ANGELES — More than 1,200 shelter pets at the seven LA County Animal Care Centers will be ready for their close-up on Saturday, July 13, 2019, when the largest photoshoot of shelter pets happens on one day.
The first-ever “Seen = Saved” Adoption Event will bring together 200 photographers from around the country to give exposure to all the shelter pets that are available for adoption. The adoption fees are being waived all weekend.
Past volunteer work
I have worked with local rescue organizations in the past volunteering my web and graphic design services and donating time as a Foster family. But oh my! I always cried every time I had to hand a dog back to the shelter… but at the same time I’m very happy to see them go to their forever home!!!
