Amanda Paris
Shelter Director
Amanda has worked at Southern Pines Animal Shelter for over a decade. She started at the shelter as a kennel tech during college while studying Sociology, but she fell in love with animal welfare and her shelter family and never left after graduation. During her time at Southern Pines, she has revamped the shelter's operations and led the development of a life-saving transport program that has grown to move over 4500 animals a year from shelters in the South to partner shelters in other parts of the country. Her passions are optimizing shelter operations, animal transport, change-oriented culture building, and mentoring a new generation of animal welfare leaders.  ​
