After graduating from Purdue University with a bachelor’s degree in Hotel & Restaurant Management, Theresa started her management career in corporate restaurants before joining Morris Animal Inn as Lodging Manager in 2007 with the desire to bring her hospitality experience into the pet care world. She was thrilled to have the chance to return in 2021 as our Recruiting & Human Resource Manager! Her mission is to get the word out to fellow pet lovers so they are aware of the amazing career opportunities that we offer and to make sure that the staff and their experience at MAI are a priority!

What she loves most about working at MAI is the company vision and support of the Morris Family as well as being part of a hard-working, dedicated staff. Making sure that the comfort & safety of the pets in our care and the trust of our clients are the driving force in everything they do is a top priority. Of course, being around the most adorable cats and dogs all day is also a nice perk!

Theresa & her husband keep busy at home with their two rescue pets, a sweet Pitbull/Chihuahua mix named Cookie and a spicy torti cat named Willow, a coop full of chickens, and an ever-expanding vegetable garden.
