Jessie

Jessie , as President of Coaldale & Regional PAWS, brings both deep community roots and a heartfelt passion for animal welfare to the role. Born and raised in Coaldale, Jessie returned to her hometown after attending dental hygiene school in Texas and has worked as a dental hygienist for the past 14 years. She currently practices at Land O' Lakes Dental in Coaldale, where her dedication to helping others shines through every day.

Before joining PAWS, Jessie served as a volunteer and board member for the Coaldale Copperheads, another local nonprofit, where she honed her leadership skills and deepened her commitment to giving back to the community.

Her love for dogs—especially boxers—was sparked by her first pup, Lincoln, who she lovingly calls her "soul dog." That bond opened her eyes to the importance of rescue work and inspired her mission: to help every dog find a loving and safe home. Jessie brings compassion, energy, and a strong desire to make a lasting impact for animals in need.

In her spare time, Jessie enjoys sports—particularly golf and hockey. She proudly embraces her role as a fun-loving aunt and a devoted dog mom to her boxer, Luca.
