Why Rachel DK Finney?
Finney brings 25 years of nonprofit leadership, including 21 years in animal welfare. She’s built shelters, led capital campaigns, overseen cruelty investigations, and served on The Association’s Board of Directors. Her coaching style is part Mary Poppins, part Gordon Ramsay: nurturing, principled, direct—and always focused on lasting impact.
“I’ve spent my career leading in animal welfare" says Finney. "I understand the lingo, the stakes, and the emotional toll this work can take. Coaching isn’t about fixing what’s broken—it’s about amplifying your strengths, building resilience, and discovering new ways to lead with authenticity and clarity. I’m honored to partner with The Association to support leaders who are ready to grow.”
This member offer is available on a first-come, first-served basis and spaces are limited.
