Gabrielle was recruited to join IGNITE in 2016, shortly after its inception. Her marketing career in animal health began at Sound (a VCA company), where she steered the yacht for VCA Animal Hospitals, ANTECH Diagnostics, Sound, and Via’s presence at veterinary trade shows nationally; leading a project which implemented a 1.2 million dollar trade show booth revamp. When Gabrielle had the opportunity to work with her VCA colleague Dr. Jill Clark at IGNITE, she jumped at the chance to bring the idea of IGNITE to life. Gabrielle’s favorite part of working with IGNITE is uniting veterinary staff worldwide, who would normally never cross paths, and enabling them to work together and solve problems to help pets. Apart from IGNITE, Gabrielle loves hiking, reading, and DIY projects. She enjoys spending time with her fiancé, Ryan, their 1-year-old son, River, and their two dogs, Betty and Lucy a.k.a. “the Goose”.
