Riley thrives in collaborative work that is task-oriented. He loves the challenge of working quickly and efficiently while helping out his co-workers. He is grateful for all he has learned from his team and looks forward to continuing to grow his skills while helping dogs throughout the Seattle area.

When he’s not at work, Riley enjoys spending his free time with Moose. Together they go on long walks, explore nearby hiking trails, and play fetch at the park. Riley also enjoys photography and singing. He has sung in choirs for nearly a decade!
