Role in this company: I am the founder and former COO and CEO of Hounds Town, a pet care franchise I built to over 100 locations. I recently stepped out of the day to day and moved into the Chairwoman of the Board seat, providing strategic direction and accountability to my on the ground team. I founded Hounds Town in 2013 and have sat in every seat in the company, giving me a very unique perspective on building a company from the inside out.
Strengths in this role: Leadership, EOS, Integration, Coaching, Franchising, Strategy, Communication, Team Building, Brand Building I built my company from a concept into a scalable, award-winning franchise system — designing the infrastructure, standards, and support model that made rapid national expansion possible. This required a 30,000 foot view of the business to see and understand its inner workings, enabling the company to operate to its highest degree of efficiency with limited resources.

Success story
I had an idea on a train ride to work one morning that turned into a $50 million dollar a year business and a national franchise. The idea came from my dog, Maggie, and the lack of care I could find for her while I worked. I started Hounds Town to help dogs like her and pet owners like me. In 14 years, I took the company from concept to over 100 locations. Along the way, we have been recognized on the Inc. 5,000's Fastest Growing Companies in the country list for the last three years!
