Animal Care Team
Cayla–full time animal lover, crafter, and cat mom.
She moved to Friday Harbor in 2020. Originally hailing from small town Indiana, Cayla graduated from Ball State University (Chirp! Chirp!) with a degree in Theatre Studies. She moved to the West Coast to work in theatre management, and did so in Tacoma, WA. After seven years, she moved to the island with the determination of living the calm chill life after living in the fast-paced city life.
She is blessed to have grown up with a family of animal lovers who all yearn for nature adventures and travel, so a love of the outdoors & connection with animals came pretty early. She loves camping, hiking, theme parks, and just snuggling up with her cats at home. Cayla is a proud nerd who enjoys the finer things in life, such as tabletop gaming, conventions with cosplay, fantasy novels, ghost stories, and PBS.
She lives her life to the fullest whimsy, and is incredibly grateful to be working for APS Friday
Harbor to be in service to a great cause!
