Helen joined the board in 2019 as the Director of Event Strategy and Logistics. She holds a Master’s degree in Operations Management from the University of Strathclyde in Glasgow, Scotland and works as a manager in Supply Chain for a local semiconductor company.
Helen married into a pug family (her in-laws have rescued over a dozen pugs over their lifetimes). In 2011, she “liked” the rescue on Facebook as a way of exciting her husband about their move to Austin. She quickly became involved as foster, adopter, event volunteer, and finally event coordinator for the team. Her three dogs, Minnie (pictured), Franny, and Bruno are all PRA alumni and much loved members of the family.
She cannot imagine her life without her goofy, loving, puggy companions! Her aim is to spread the pug-love by connecting pugs and pug mixes in need with their future “forever” families.
