Moya has been involved with AIWC since early 2013. She is a volunteer, educational animal assistant and rescue driver.
From a very early age, Moya developed a deep respect and love for all animals. She has always enjoyed caring for animals and spending time with them and appreciates the joy that animals bring to our lives on a daily basis. Animals are a big part of Moya’s life and family, especially her three very spoiled rescue cats.
Moya feels fortunate to have the opportunity to serve on the Board and is honored to work with such a passionate and dedicated team of staff and volunteers.
Having lived in the country on an acreage for 28 years I am privileged to interact with wildlife daily. From the birds we feed in our orchard, to our resident porcupine, the moose, deer, fox and of course coyotes, there is always something around to admire! My love of animals began with my dogs, cats and horses, and grew during university summer jobs at a zoo where I was fortunate to work with a variety of animals, large and small.
I have an administrative business background, and volunteer in varying capacities regularly, including non-profit Board experience. I am a certified Horticulturist in greenhouse crop production, hobby Beekeeper, certified Raw Food Chef, and love to read.
I am excited to have joined the Board of AIWC and work in support of this wonderful organization and their contribution to the welfare of our local wildlife!
Bio coming soon!
