Kristie Nardini started at the MSPCA-Angell in 2019 as the Volunteer Coordinator, where she designed and implemented a new program to help support the veterinary staff. Kristie has a particular interest in engaging people in service and creating unique experiences for volunteers, and throughout her time at Angell, she became more passionate about engagement and program development. This led her to her current role, where she became a manager of inpatient services in 2022 to develop and oversee and training program for animal care attendants. Kristie now helps the staff in our Inpatient department by creating training opportunities, fostering a network of support through onboarding, and building meaningful experiences for our animal care attendants to further their careers in this industry. She also assists our administrative team with best practices for accurate and efficient charges. Kristie earned her bachelor’s in social work from Western New England University and her master’s in Community Engagement from Merrimack College. She is known for adopting senior cats and advocating for fostering animals.
