Monce
Office Manager
Hi! My name is Monce. I was born in Mexico and moved to the U.S. at age 6, growing up in Modesto. I’ve always had a passion for helping others, and my love for animals has grown even more since working here.
About a year ago I adopted an 8-year-old poodle named Luna, who hops like a bunny instead of running!
My motto has always been
“Lo hago porque puedo, puedo porque quiero, y quiero porque dijeron que no podía.”
