Shoneka

Shoneka is our Business Administration Manager. She credits her love of animals to her 5 th grade science teacher who had a room filled with animals for the students to learn about and take care of. Originally from Wilmington Delaware Shoneka relocated to Greensboro to attend North Carolina Agricultural and Technical State University where she earned a BS degree in Animal Science. Shoneka started working in her first veterinary job as a receptionist in 1998 where she realized her value as a leader in communication, organization, and customer service. After being promoted to assistant manager and then practice manager, Shoneka became the first employee of the Happy Tails team in 2008. With over 20 years of experience in emergency veterinary management, she is adding to that experience by pursuing a degree in Business Administration. She loves working within the Happy Tails team because they truly value the hard work and commitment it takes to serve in the veterinary field and recognize that having a supported and fulfilled staff leads to the best client service and patient care. She is truly inspired and motivated by supporting the veterinary team in her role as business administration manager. When Shoneka isn’t working, she loves cooking at home for her husband, and two sons. In her free time Shoneka enjoys singing, playing volleyball, and lounging on the patio with the family and their sweet new dog Gigi. Gigi is a little schnoodle who found and stole the hearts of the family. She charms everyone who she meets with her curiosity, energy, and affection.
