At CCFMS, my team is small but mighty—and full of personality!

Life after being childless not by choice has taught me that family comes in many forms. For me, that family includes a cast of lovable, four-legged coworkers who aren’t just companions—they’re my children. They bring unconditional love, joy, and comfort to my life and inspire my work every single day. Each of them has a unique personality and a special place in my heart, reminding me that love and connection can be found in the most unexpected places.

Rocky

The senior member of the team and my soul dog. Rocky may be getting up there in years, but he’s still the heart and soul of my operation. Offering unconditional love and the occasional snore during meetings.

Choochi

Although no longer with us, Choochi’s memory lives on as the official mascot of perseverance and boundless enthusiasm. Her spirit continues to inspire everything I do.

Tank

The steady, quiet presence in my office. Tank reminds me that slow and steady really does win the race (especially when it comes to deadlines!).

Sylvester

The playful wildcard and the newest addition to the team. Sylvester keeps things lively with his mischievous antics—stealing pens, chasing after anything that moves, and occasionally adding his own "touch" to my drafts. His curious energy brings a fresh dynamic to our little crew, and he’s already claimed his spot as the office entertainer.

This dream team reminds me every day that life can be full of love, purpose, and humor, no matter the path we walk—or crawl.
