Meet the Mad Paws Team: Ale

When I was in Mexico I was working in an advertising agency as an art director. I was managing the creative processes and brainstorming ideas. I was able to work on TV ad production, but my main responsibilities were to be in charge of all the graphics and printable assets of the campaigns. 

 

My husband and I then moved to Australia as an adventure, and we ended up staying. After working in a series of different jobs while I settled in, I was given the opportunity to start working at Mad Paws. 

 

I love that I have the opportunity to work in different parts of the business. Even though my role is CRM Manager, I enjoy that I get to help in other departments. I constantly get to learn from my colleagues, which is very rewarding. I also love the people, because we’ve all become very good friends. It’s as if I’m working with family, not just colleagues.

 

When you’re a member of the Mad Paws Pack, you can always expect the support of everyone around you. You never feel as if you’re on your own. Whenever you have a problem you can’t solve, you can approach your boss or co-worker and they’ll always be willing to help. 

 

I have a photo from Mexico of myself with my Golden Retriever Koopa. I love that photo because it reminds me of all the lovely memories I made with him. He unfortunately passed away a couple of years ago, but that photo reminds me of a beautiful day we spent together. 

 

I also have a bobble head of the artist Bob Ross, which was given to me by friend and former Mad Paws Content Manager Melanie.  I like Bob Ross, and used to ask Melanie to post a Facebook photo of a doggy dressed as him. She never wanted to do it, and used to joke: “You’re obsessed with Bob Ross!” Before she returned to England, she bought me the Bob Ross bobble head as a farewell gift. It’s very special to me, because it reminds me of all the good times we shared together.
