St. Tammany Humane Society Employees:

**Administration**
	Vicky, Interim Executive Director! After receiving her accounting degree from U.N.O., she worked for a hotel before coming to the Northshore. She has been with us for a little over three years. We love her because she makes our checks each week.
	Medical Director, Dr. Michelle Newfield, is a graduate of LSU School of Veterinary Medicine.
	Jacqie, Kennel Manager. She is the one who makes sure all the dogs and cats in the shelter are properly taken care of. Originally from Indiana, she traveled to Chicago where she received her Culinary degree. How did she end up with animals?? Your bet is as good as mine. She has been with the humane society for a year and a half now and sometimes brings her dog, Diesel, to work.
	Office Manager/Adoptions Counselor: Jessica Plauche Harris.
	Susie, our Development & Volunteer Manager. She recently received her B.A. in Communication at Southeastern Louisiana University before working here. Her favorite part of the job is the different dogs that hang out in her office every day.
