Bennie, Director of Program Development

I was fortunate to be born into an animal loving family that nurtured and encouraged the respect and integrity of all living things, including the earth, in me. At an early age I was taking in all species of animals and with the help of my parents, making their lives better, often just providing love and companionship as they passed. By the time I was in my mid twenties, I had already been a professional model, IBM executive, served in the military and headed West to try my hand at being a full time cowgirl. But, I had also devoted my life to animal welfare and the future of the environment.

When asked how I wanted to be seen, my greatest desire is to be known as a person who contributes significantly to the advancement of animal care and humanity through holistic education and personal development regardless of ethnicity, language, nationality, beliefs or philosophical outlook. I strive to consistently impart information on animal health issues, development of animal treatment protocols, ethical treatment of animals, the earth and all humans. My main hope is to see individuals break free of self-imposed limitations and work toward building stronger communication and development programs that unite the great advancements in science and the ancient mysteries of healing for the ultimate physical, mental, emotional and spiritual health for animals and their caretakers.

I believe this achievement and their success is vital to my own life force. When I discovered IAATH, I felt this organization met all the criteria of everything I had been working for and the goals I had envisioned. The core group of IAATH and all the individuals involved have worked tirelessly and have the integrity in their resolve to provide the best information in holistic animal healthcare. With technology moving us to such incredible limits of “information speed”, it is crucial to have a place to go for accurate information when it comes to the health of your animal companions. The practitioners listed in the IAATH directory and the attendees at the last convention are a very impressive group of individuals from all over the world. Everyone has made an incredible contribution to IAATH and I feel honored to be a small part of an organization that is filling a great need at this time.

Our roles are constantly changing and growing as the holistic horizon expands. I welcome all members and site visitors to feel free to contact me directly if you have any questions, comments or need further information.
