Tell me about yourself
I come from a humble, middle-class upbringing, and my childhood was filled with wonderful memories. moments. From a young age, I possessed a deep capacity for empathy, though I didn't fully comprehend its significance until I got older.
Dogs have always held a special place in my heart. Little did I know that later in life, I would embark on the most daunting challenge of my life.
Tell me about your Business.
I started a business during Covid, making all natural body polish, which slowly grew when I moved out of New York City. Building a company in New York was out of the question; the suburbs was where I had to be. when I moved something amazing happened; I realized people who lived in apartments were getting the wrong breed of dog from the wrong resources. I searched online for an app that would help people and there wasn't so I had one created. Hands2paws is only app that matches humans with the right breed of dog or Available rescues. It is now available in the US, Canada and the UK www.hands2paws.com

What would you say is the best part of owning your business?
I make the decisions and I don't have to run ideas by anyone. I know my business and don't have to battle with someone who doesn't understand what's going on in the Dog world.
What is one unusual fact about your business?
Hands2paws is the only app in the entire world that does what it does.
The unusual fact about my business is, I am trying to educate consumers that don't want to be educated. They want to purchase puppies online and from backyard breeders and pet stores and look the other way.
What would you say is the highlight of your work so far?
I had an idea for a TV show that follows the journey of people looking for a pure breed and how to go about getting one the right way and also the journey of those looking to a rescue a dog. Right now it's working Titleist pet pursuit finding the perfect match, and it is an unscripted reality show being pitched to various networks.
